If you have a gold statue that has a density of 19.3 gcm3 and a bag of sand that has a density of 3.00 gcm3 and they both have a volume of 1.7L what is the Mass?

Density is calculated by mass divided by volume. Mass is therefore calculated by density multiplied by volume. Make sure your units are compatible - 1L - 1000 cm3
So, gold statue's mass is 19.3 g/cm3 x 1700 cm3 =
and sand's mass is 3.00 g/cm3 x 1700 cm3 =

How do you calculate the mass of something using density and volume?
Density = (mass) / (volume) Multiply both sides of the equation by (volume): Mass = (Density) times (volume)
Does mass or volume affect the density of the substance?
Yes, both do. Density = Mass/Volume, So density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
How is density affected by increasing the mass while holding the volume constant?
Original density = M/VNew density = (KM)/(KV) = (K/K) (M/V) = original density.If the mass and volume both increase by the same factor, the density is unchanged.It only means that you have a larger piece of the same substance.
What is the density of an object with a mass of 84 grams?
You need to know the volume as well as the mass to be able to calculate the density
What must be measured to calculate density?
Density is mass per unit volume - so you need both of those.
How do you calculate the mass of something using density and volume?
Density = (mass) / (volume) Multiply both sides of the equation by (volume): Mass = (Density) times (volume)
What is the density if the mass is 2000 grams?
Density = Mass/Volume. You cannot calculate density without knowing BOTH mass and volume.
How is the density different from mass and volume?
Mass is the amount of matter, volume is the amount of space, and density uses both, it is mass / volume.
Does mass or volume affect the density of the substance?
Yes, both do. Density = Mass/Volume, So density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
One of the factors affecting density is?
Density = Mass/Volume. As a result, density is entirely dependent on both mass and volume.
How do you calculate volume if you know the mass and density?
Density is by definition mass divided by volume. Therefore volume times density equals mass. Diving both sides of that equation by the density, we get volume equals mass divided by density. So the answer to your question is, divide the mass by the density.
Why is mass used instead of volume when calculating density?
Actually, BOTH are used. You can define density as mass divided by volume (or mass per unit volume).
Does changing the mass or volume of an object change it's density?
Yes if the both are not changed proportionately, Density = mass/volume.
When mass and volume change what happens to the density?
When mass increases and volume stays constant, the density increases. When volume increases and mass stays constant the density decreases. When they both change, then the density will depend on the rate of change of mass and the rate of change of volume.
What is a density of mass?
There is no such thing. There is the density if any object which has both mass and volume. Density is found by dividing mass by voleum.
Why doesn't mass depend on volume?
Mass (measured as weight) is dependent on both density and volume.
How can you obtain an objects volume if you know its density and its mass?
You just need to rework the density formula: D = M / V, where D is density, M is mass, and V is volume. So all you need to do is put in the Density and Mass and solve for V: D = M / V D * V = M V = M / D And so our volume becomes Mass divided by Density.
