Want this question answered?
The 50g one does have the greater density. This is because density is defined as mass divided by volume.
I took the liberty of changing the density to 5g/cm3 since 5g would be a mass quantity, and the volume to 10cm3, since 10cm would be a length quantity. density = mass/volume mass = density x volume = 5g/cm3 x 10cm3 = 50g
Density= Mass/Volume = .183kg/50cm3= .00366 kg / m^3 the above solution is wrong because you have to get the units right density = mass/volume = kg/m^3 = 1000g/1000000cm^3 density = 0.183/0.00005 = 3660Kg/m^3
for the same volume of both, 5 grams is less dense. Your question shows that you do not understand what Density means. If you want to compare densities of different substances, you must say what the substances WEIGH, and also say what the VOLUME is, of each of them. DENSITY is always expressed in gram/cc (gram per cubic centimetre.). A cube which measures exactly 1cm on all of it's 12 edges, has a volume of exactly 1cubic cm. EXAMPLE of density:- The Density of Aluminium is about 3gm/cc. The density of Steel is about 8 gm/cc. Scientists always measure density by finding the weight of a substance which occupies a volume of 1 cubic cm. I have a booklet which lists the density of every commonly used metal, and rubber and timber. Different timbers have different densities. Timber density can be as low as 0.2gm/cc and as high as 2gm/cc. Always remember that the density of pure WATER is exactly 1gm/cc. A commonly used term is Relative Density, which means the ratio of a substance density compared to WATER. So, you can see that the Relative Density of Aluminium is simply 3, because it's density is 3 times as much as the density of the most common substance on earth(which never changes no matter where it comes from, but it must be PURE Water.) I hope that helps you understand how to talk about Density.
If the specific gravity of the what is being measured is equal to 1 then the both the weight and the volume will have the same numeric value. But on earth 50ml is equal to 1cm3 and 1L is approx. 1kg so 50ml is equal to 50g not 50 mg
density = mass/volume = 50g/8cm^3 = 6.25 g/cm^3
(50g)/(15g/cm3)=3.333...cm3 or 3 1/3 cm3
The 50g one does have the greater density. This is because density is defined as mass divided by volume.
Volume = mass/volume = 500g/10cm3 = 50g/cm3
You don't need density to find mass. In a lot of question you need to find density with the given mass and volume. But to find density you would use a triple beam balance. To find volume you would either measure the length, width and height or you could fill a beaker up with water lets say 50g and then put the object in the beaker and lets say it raised up to 80g all you have to do is subtract 80g-50g=30g. To find density with volume and mass you divide mass------volume and get density.
Density = Mass/Volume = 50g/12.5mL = 4 g per mL
density = mass/volume = 50g/4.5mL = 11g/mL
I took the liberty of changing the density to 5g/cm3 since 5g would be a mass quantity, and the volume to 10cm3, since 10cm would be a length quantity. density = mass/volume mass = density x volume = 5g/cm3 x 10cm3 = 50g
The measurement unit for volume is not a centimetre and so the volume cannot be 5 cm and, in that respect, the question is flawed. If you meant 5 cubic centimetres, then the density is 10 grams per cubic centimetre.
The question isn't valid because a gram is a unit of mass but a milliliter is a unit of volume. You would need to refer to a specific material's density to make a comparison. Density relates the volume of a material to its mass, but it can differ greatly based on the material in question. For example, 50g of lead occupies much less volume than 50g of water.
Density = Mass/Volume = 50/(4*4*4) = 50/64 = 0.78125 grams per cm3.
Density= Mass/Volume = .183kg/50cm3= .00366 kg / m^3 the above solution is wrong because you have to get the units right density = mass/volume = kg/m^3 = 1000g/1000000cm^3 density = 0.183/0.00005 = 3660Kg/m^3
