Mass, volume & density

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

1. A sample has a mass of 187 g and a volume of 17 cm³. Calculate its density.
11 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 187 g ÷ 17 cm³ = 11 g/cm³.
2. A sample has a mass of 20 g and a volume of 2 cm³. Calculate its density.
10 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 20 g ÷ 2 cm³ = 10 g/cm³.
3. A sample has a mass of 208 g and a volume of 16 cm³. Calculate its density.
13 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 208 g ÷ 16 cm³ = 13 g/cm³.
4. A sample has a mass of 300 g and a volume of 20 cm³. Calculate its density.
15 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 300 g ÷ 20 cm³ = 15 g/cm³.
5. A sample has a mass of 210 g and a volume of 14 cm³. Calculate its density.
15 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 210 g ÷ 14 cm³ = 15 g/cm³.
6. A sample has a mass of 16 g and a volume of 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
2 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 16 g ÷ 8 cm³ = 2 g/cm³.
7. A sample has a mass of 68 g and a volume of 17 cm³. Calculate its density.
4 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 68 g ÷ 17 cm³ = 4 g/cm³.
8. A sample has a mass of 120 g and a volume of 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
15 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 120 g ÷ 8 cm³ = 15 g/cm³.
9. A sample has a mass of 42 g and a volume of 6 cm³. Calculate its density.
7 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 42 g ÷ 6 cm³ = 7 g/cm³.
10. A sample has a mass of 36 g and a volume of 12 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 36 g ÷ 12 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
11. A sample has a mass of 144 g and a volume of 18 cm³. Calculate its density.
8 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 144 g ÷ 18 cm³ = 8 g/cm³.
12. A sample has a mass of 96 g and a volume of 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
12 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 96 g ÷ 8 cm³ = 12 g/cm³.
