CHAPTER 12 DENSITY

Notes
Density: Density is the measure of mass per unit
volume.
1. Density = mass
Volume
2. Volume = mass
Density
3. Mass=volume x density

Units of density are kg/m³ and g/cm³.


Density of water is 1 g/cm³ or 1000 kg /m³.
Instrument used to measure mass- top-pan balance
Instrument used to measure volume-Measuring
cylinder

End of Chapter questions


Please copy the questions from text book page no 76
1. density = mass ÷ volume
= 100 g ÷ 20 cm3
= 5 g/cm3

2. density = mass ÷ volume


= 40 000 kg ÷ 5 m3
= 8000 kg/m3

3. density = mass ÷ volume


So, mass = Density x volume
= 6000 x 3
= 18000 kg
a) B
b) C
c) A and C
d) D

5. Volume of the tank = depth × width × length


=2m×4m×5m
= 40 m3
density = mass ÷ volume
Mass = Density x volume
= 1000 x 40 = 40000 kg

6. density = mass ÷ volume


Volume = mass / Density
= 20 000 kg ÷ 4000 kg/m3 = 5 m3

7. density = mass ÷ volume


= 30 g ÷ (60 – 50) cm3
= 3 g/cm3
9. Volume = 2.5 x4 x 10 = 100 m³
Mass = Density x volume = 1.3 x 100 = 130 kg
