What two properties must be known to calculate the density of a mineral?
mass and volume
What has a density of 2.65 gcm3?
The mineral quartz has a density of 2.65 grams per cubic centimeter. It is a colorless mineral that is mainly composed of silicon dioxide.
What property of a mineral is determined by its chemical composition?
The color of a mineral sample is determined by its chemical composition
On what does the density of a mineral depend?
The molecular weight and percentage composition of the component atoms (Gold weighs more than copper even though they are chemically similar) and the packing structure (how much wasted space is there in the crystal?)
Does lawrencium have a density?
The density of lawrencium was not determined.
How is mass and volume determined in density?
Mass and volume are not determined by density. Rather density is determined by mass and volume
Explain the relatoinship between th density of a mineral and its size?
A mineral's density increases as its mass per unit volume increases. If a mineral has a small mass and large unit volume, its density is smaller. Whereas, if a mineral has a large mass and a small unit volume, its density is greater.
Density can be determined using?
density = mass+ volume
What is density determined by?
Density is determined by two measurements: the mass and volume of an object. The quotient of the mass and volume (mass divided by volume) is density. It can be represented as grams per milliliter (g/mL).
The mass per unit volume of a mineral is called?
Density The formula is Density=Mass/Volume.
What is determined by mass versus volume?
mass / volume = density
This is determined by dividing mass by volume?
density
What can mass and volume be used to determined?
density
Is the density of a mineral considered its mass divided by its volume?
Yes, the standard definition of density is mass divided by volume. This presumes the mineral is uniform throughout the sample.
The density of an object is a what?
The density of an object is its mass per unit of volume and is determined by dividing its mass by its volume.
How is the density of an object determined?
You find the density of an object by dividing its mass by its volume.
Which mineral property do you find mass per unit?
weight = mass * gravitational constant.
