Units of Density Formulas
1 ml = 1 cm3 _Mass (m)_ m
Solids = g/cm3 Density (d) =
Volume (v)
Liquids = g/ml d v
Gases = g/ml Volume (v) = Length (l) x Width (w) x Height (h)
1) Find the unknown quantity. One has been done for you.
a) d = 3 g/ml b) d = ? c) d = 5 g/cm3
v = 100 ml v = 95 ml v=?
m=? m = 950 g m = 20 g
write formula: m=d x v
Sub. known info: m= 3g/ml X 100ml
Solve: m=300 g
d) d = 24 g/ml e) d = ? f) d = 250 g/cm3
v = 1200 ml v = 100 ml v=?
m=? m = 1500 g m = 1000 g
