You take the mass of the object in grams, and divide it by the volume of the object in Liters(Litres), and you get Density with the units of grams per liter(litre). The gram and Liter(Litre) can be substituted for other SI (metric) units of mass and volume, so long as the mass unit is the numerator and the volume unit is the denominator of the rate. The formula becomes Density = Mass / Volume or D = M/V.

How do you find the density of an unknown mineral?

To find the density of an unknown mineral, you can measure its mass using a scale and then measure its volume by displacement in water. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the mineral.

Where can I find more information on bone mineral density?

Bone Mineral Density tests measure the density of minerals in your bones to determine bone strength. This could often be found to be beneficial. However more information can be found at http://www.webmd.com/osteoporosis/bone-mineral-density-test


Which mineral property do you find mass per unit?

The mineral property you are referring to is density, which is the mass of a mineral per unit volume. It helps in identifying and distinguishing different minerals based on their weight or density.


How is math related to rocks and minerals?

Math allows for the calculation and prediction of the density/ mass/ weight/ force of on object. All science depends on math in someway. Also, math can also be used to calculate the molecules and atom in the mineral/ object.


How can density help identify a mineral?

Density can help identify a mineral by comparing its density to known values of common minerals. By measuring the mass and volume of a mineral sample, its density can be calculated and compared to established density values of minerals. This can help narrow down the possibilities of the mineral's identity based on its unique density.


How do you calculate mineral volume?

Mineral density should know. Weight / density = volume


What is the density of the mineral cartridge?

A cartridge is NOT a mineral.


What of a mineral will determine if it floats or sinks in water?

The density of the mineral compared to the density of water will determine if it floats or sinks. If the mineral has a lower density than water, it will float; if it has a higher density, it will sink.

A 1066 gram mineral displaces 300 ml of water. What is the specific gravity of the mineral?

We find that 3.53 is the spee gee (specific gravity) of our mineral. Specific gravity is a measure of the density of a substance compared to the density of water. The density of water is 1 g/ml and we just need to do some simple math. Since water is 1g/ml, we just need to find out the density of our sample in g/ml and drop the units. Note that specific gravity has no units associated with it. It is a number. Our mineral sample weighs 1066 grams, and its volume is 300 ml. 1066 / 300 = 3.53333....
