Answer:
The mass of a block is 5.87g and its volume is 1.45mL, what is the density?
This question is asking to find density with knowns of mass and volume.
This is the formula used for problems related to Density.
P=M
__
V
P=Density
V= volume
M=Mass
Input variables, solve and simplify
Identify knowns
m=5.87 g
v=1.45L
Convert units
V=1.45 mL .1dm³/1 mL. V=1.45 dm³
Plug-in values
P=5.87g/1.45dm³
Divide the numbers
P=4.048275862 g/dm³
Convert units
P=4.048275862 kg/m³
Check unit of measurement
Density is measured in kilogram per meter cubed.
Solution
P=4.048275862 kg/m³
