When you have a piece of a substance, its mass and volume have to be measured.
After you've done that, you can calculate the density ... it's (mass) divided by (volume).
It doesn't matter whether the sample you have is large or small. The density
will be the same.
I've cleaned up this wrong answer and put this final into this:
density = mass / VolumeVolume = mass / densitymass = density * VolumeUse a mass balance to find the mass then find the volume by V=mass/density.
Density = mass/volume To find mass when density and volume are known, multiply the density times the volume.
Mass divided by volume Ex. Mass: 12 Volume:3 Density:4 g/cm Hope this helps!
Measure out a specific volume of water, such as 100mL. Determine the mass of that volume of water. Density = mass/volume, so divide the mass by the volume, and you will have the density.
It's always mass over volume, so you divide the mass by the volume then that is your density. mass/volume
Density = Mass / Volume Rearranging this gives: Volume = Mass / Density Mass = Density × Volume
mass = density ( )/cm3 multiplied by volume( )cm3
density = mass/volume mass = density x volume
You have to know two out of three ... mass, volume, density ... then you can find the missing one. If density is missing . . . Density = (mass)/(volume) If mass is missing . . . Mass = (density) x (volume) If volume is missing . . . Volume = (mass)/(density)
Find its volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density.
density is mass divided by /volume so mass is density times volume
Density = (mass) divided by (volume)Mass = (Density) times (volume)
Density = mass/volumeMass = (density) x (volume)Volume = mass/density
Density = Mass/Volume
mass divided by volume... mass/volume=density
Multiply them: density*volume = mass
Volume = mass / density
