Best Answer

density will give you the most info because it tells mass per volume, which for elements is nearly unique, whereas temperature and volume are both extrinsic - meaning they have nothing to do with the properties of the material.

How can the identity of a substance be identified?

By density


How do you work out the density of a solid aluminium cylinder the radius is 38mm and the height is 16.7mm and the volume is 75758.88mm3?

You cannot. You have the volume but no information on the mass. And density = mass/volume (in the appropriate units of measurement).

The measurement of how much mass is contained in a given volume?

This is known as density, which is the mass of a substance per unit volume. It is commonly expressed in units such as grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per liter.


Process that does not change the identity of a substance?

What is the measurement of the amount of salt in water?

Density


Density of sand in sea water?

the density of the sand doesn't change because density is a measurement of mass in a given space however weight changes. weight is a measurement of gravitational pull on an object


What is the measurement of how much mass of a substance is contained in unit of volume?

The relevant measurement is density.


What two properties are related in the measurement of density?

Density is the ratio of Mass per Volume.


What is the density of gold when the mass is 5.00 cm?

5.00 cm is a length measurement, not a mass measurement. You need to know the mass and volume of an object to find density. Density = mass/volume.


How can the property of density be useful as qualitative information about a specific substance?

Density information for a substance is useful because it is always the same regardless of the amount of substance there is. Take water for example. The density of water is same regardless if you have ten gallons of it or tablespoon of it. (1 gram/milliliter at STP). Since the density of a substance is always the same this property can exploited to determine the identity of unknown substances.
