Question

Find the density of a material, given that a 5.03 g sample occupies 3.24 mL.

Answer 1

The density (d) of a substance is the ratio of its mass (m) to the amount of space it occupies (v). That is,
d = m / v
Substituting the given values,
d = 5.03 g / 3.24 mL = 1.55 g/mL
Therefore, the density of the substance is approximately equal to 1.55 g/mL.
