Density is useful for identifying an unknown material because it is a physical constant. A physical constant is a unique characteristic of the material in question. This constant never change or vary with the shape or amount of the material/substance.
divide mass and volume(:
Density is mass/volume.Density of the unknown substance = 47.5g/23.0mL = 2.07g/mLHint: Mass is always measured in grams of some sort; mg, g, kg, etc... Volume is measured in mL, L, m3, cm3, etc...
I am unable to read your profile, so I cannot access the information you are speaking of. If you are looking for identification of an unknown substance, I recommend taking it to your local police department so it can be identified and then disposed of if it is dangerous.
Physical and chemical properties can be used to identify an unknown substance by comparing its characteristics to known standards. Physical properties, such as boiling point, melting point, density, and solubility, provide measurable data that can help narrow down possibilities. Chemical properties, including reactivity with acids or bases and behavior under specific conditions, can further confirm the identity of the substance. By systematically analyzing these properties, one can make an informed identification of the unknown substance.
One way is using the formula D=m/v. Or you could get some water and put the substance inside the water and see if the density is lower or higher.
Yes, density can be used as a useful property for identifying substances in lab experiments. By measuring the density of a substance and comparing it to known values, scientists can help determine the identity of an unknown substance.
Density can be used to determine the identity of a substance by comparing the density of the unknown substance to the known densities of different substances. Each substance has a characteristic density, so if the density of the unknown substance matches that of a known substance, it can help identify the unknown substance.
divide mass and volume(:
To calculate the density of an unknown substance, first measure its mass using a balance. Then, determine its volume by either measuring its dimensions and calculating the volume or using displacement method in a liquid. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the unknown substance.

To identify an unknown substance, one can conduct tests such as spectroscopy, chromatography, and chemical reactions to determine its properties and composition. These tests can help determine the substance's characteristics and compare them to known substances for identification.
All you can do with mass and volume is to determine the density of the substance. density = mass / volume or p=m/v after you determine the density, you can look on any density table and find the substance you are looking for. good look. -julio
density = mass/volume = 43.54g / 26.5ml ≈ 1.643 g/ml
Density is calculated by dividing the mass of a substance by its volume. In this case, the density of the unknown liquid is 100 g / 30 ml = 3.33 g/ml.
To answer that you would need to know the size (volume) of the box.
Finding the volume and comparing it to the mass will give you the density, then it is simply a matter of looking up which materials have that density to find what it is. And that is how you can tell howthe density can be used
density = mass/volume density = 15/20 = 3/4 units/ml
