Mass, volume & density

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

1. A sample has a mass of 234 g and a volume of 18 cm³. Calculate its density.
13 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 234 g ÷ 18 cm³ = 13 g/cm³.
2. A sample has a mass of 130 g and a volume of 10 cm³. Calculate its density.
13 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 130 g ÷ 10 cm³ = 13 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 80 g and a volume of 16 cm³. Calculate its density.
5 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 80 g ÷ 16 cm³ = 5 g/cm³.
5. A sample has a mass of 6 g and a volume of 3 cm³. Calculate its density.
2 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 6 g ÷ 3 cm³ = 2 g/cm³.
6. A sample has a mass of 180 g and a volume of 15 cm³. Calculate its density.
12 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 180 g ÷ 15 cm³ = 12 g/cm³.
7. A sample has a mass of 48 g and a volume of 16 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 48 g ÷ 16 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
8. A sample has a mass of 20 g and a volume of 10 cm³. Calculate its density.
2 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 20 g ÷ 10 cm³ = 2 g/cm³.
9. A sample has a mass of 36 g and a volume of 6 cm³. Calculate its density.
6 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 36 g ÷ 6 cm³ = 6 g/cm³.
10. A sample has a mass of 21 g and a volume of 7 cm³. Calculate its density.
3 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 21 g ÷ 7 cm³ = 3 g/cm³.
11. A sample has a mass of 126 g and a volume of 18 cm³. Calculate its density.
7 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 126 g ÷ 18 cm³ = 7 g/cm³.
12. A sample has a mass of 40 g and a volume of 4 cm³. Calculate its density.
10 g/cm³
Density = mass ÷ volume = 40 g ÷ 4 cm³ = 10 g/cm³.
