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.


If the volume of a mineral is 15ml and the mass is 30g what is the density?

The density of the mineral would be 2 g/ml (density = mass/volume).


What information about a mineral is needed to determine its density?

To determine the density of a mineral, you need to know its mass and volume. The mass of the mineral can be measured using a balance, while the volume can be determined using displacement method or by measuring its dimensions and calculating the volume. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of the mineral by its volume.


What is mass divided by its volume?

Mass divided by volume is density. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume and is often used to characterize materials and substances. Mathematically, density is calculated as mass divided by volume (density = mass/volume).
