The best strategy in that situation would be to use what you do know.
density = mass/volume If you know density and mass, you can calculate the volume by manipulating the density equation such that volume = mass/density. Example: density = 3.57g/cm3 mass = 2.4g volume = ? volume = mass/density = 2.4g/3.57g/cm3 = 0.67cm3
If you only know mass, you don't have enough information to calculate density.You also need to know the volume of the piece that has that mass.Once you have both of those numbers, the density is(Mass) divided by (Volume)of the same sample.
Density is by definition mass divided by volume. Therefore volume times density equals mass. Diving both sides of that equation by the density, we get volume equals mass divided by density. So the answer to your question is, divide the mass by the density.
Density = Mass/Volume so Mass = Density*Volume.
mass= density*volume
density = mass/volume mass = density x volume
density = mass/volume If you know density and mass, you can calculate the volume by manipulating the density equation such that volume = mass/density. Example: density = 3.57g/cm3 mass = 2.4g volume = ? volume = mass/density = 2.4g/3.57g/cm3 = 0.67cm3
You need to know the density of the material. Multiply the volume by the density will give you the mass
Density is mass per volume, so you need to know mass and volume.
Density depends on 2 things, mass and volume. If you don't know the volume you cannot calculate the density.
If you know the density and the volume, you can calculate the mass. This is becausedensity = mass/volume.
Mass and volume. You divide the mass by the volume to get density with the corresponding units. Mass and volume. Density = mass/volume Often, mass is in grams and volumes in milliliters. Water has a density of 1g/ml. Air has a density of about 0.0013g/ml. Lead has a density of 11.34g/ml.
You know that the density of pure water is 1g/cm3. If you also know the volume of the water, you can multiply the two and get the mass.
If you only know mass, you don't have enough information to calculate density.You also need to know the volume of the piece that has that mass.Once you have both of those numbers, the density is(Mass) divided by (Volume)of the same sample.
density = mass/volume
Density is by definition mass divided by volume. Therefore volume times density equals mass. Diving both sides of that equation by the density, we get volume equals mass divided by density. So the answer to your question is, divide the mass by the density.
Density = Mass/Volume so Mass = Density*Volume.
