Study Notes
Density Concepts
- Density is the amount of matter per unit volume of a substance.
- Density is a physical property of matter. Each substance has a unique density.
- Density is measured in g/cm³ or g/mL.
- Mass is how much matter an object contains, measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).
- Volume is the space an object occupies, measured in mL, L, cm³, or m³.
- Materials with high density have more particles packed into a smaller space.
Density Formula and Calculations
- The formula for density is: Density (d) = Mass (m) / Volume (V).
- To solve density problems, use the formula d = m/V.
- Units for density, mass and volume must be consistent (e.g., if mass is measured in grams, volume units must be cm³ or mL).

Additional Notes Based on Examples
-
To find the substance of a material with a given mass and volume use a table of known densities
-
Example: Cube with a mass of 96.5g and a volume of 5 cm³ is gold (density of 19.3 g/cm³).
-
Example: Calculate mass of an aluminium bar with dimensions of 8.0 cm long, 3.2 cm wide, and 1.5 cm high. The density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm³. Calculating volume gives 38.4 cm³ and mass is 104g
-
Example: A liquid with density 8.8 g/mL and a mass of 21.1g has a volume of 2.4 mL
