Mass, volume & density

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

1. A sample has a mass of 56 g and a volume of 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
7 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 56 g ÷ 8 cm³ = 7 g/cm³.
2. A sample has a mass of 132 g and a volume of 11 cm³. Calculate its density.
12 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 132 g ÷ 11 cm³ = 12 g/cm³.
3. A sample has a mass of 48 g and a volume of 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
6 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 48 g ÷ 8 cm³ = 6 g/cm³.
4. A sample has a mass of 54 g and a volume of 18 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 54 g ÷ 18 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
5. A sample has a mass of 105 g and a volume of 7 cm³. Calculate its density.
15 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 105 g ÷ 7 cm³ = 15 g/cm³.
6. A sample has a mass of 30 g and a volume of 2 cm³. Calculate its density.
15 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 30 g ÷ 2 cm³ = 15 g/cm³.
7. A sample has a mass of 12 g and a volume of 4 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 12 g ÷ 4 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
8. A sample has a mass of 72 g and a volume of 12 cm³. Calculate its density.
6 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 72 g ÷ 12 cm³ = 6 g/cm³.
9. A sample has a mass of 36 g and a volume of 9 cm³. Calculate its density.
4 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 36 g ÷ 9 cm³ = 4 g/cm³.
10. A sample has a mass of 180 g and a volume of 18 cm³. Calculate its density.
10 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 180 g ÷ 18 cm³ = 10 g/cm³.
11. A sample has a mass of 6 g and a volume of 2 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 6 g ÷ 2 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
12. A sample has a mass of 280 g and a volume of 20 cm³. Calculate its density.
14 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 280 g ÷ 20 cm³ = 14 g/cm³.
