16. Determine the density of a block of metal if its mass is 832 g and it measures 12 cm long, 6.5 cm wide, and 5.0
cm tall.

17. Determine the density of a liquid if 75 mL of the liquid have a mass of 63 g.

18. Determine the mass of a 25.0 mL sample of a liquid that has a density of 1.36 g/mL.

19. What volume of the same liquid (density = 1.36 g/mL) will have a mass of 100.0 g.

20. A material with a density of .87 g/cm3 is formed into a block that measures 25 cm long, 40 cm wide, and 10 cm
tall. Determine its mass.

GRAPHING PROBLEMS: Use the following data table to construct a graph of mass vs. volume and answer #21-25

Mass (g) Volume (mL)

0 0
6.3 5.0
13.1 10.0
19.2 15.0
25.7 20.0
32.3 25.0

21. Construct a graph of mass vs. volume using the data given. Make sure to label the axis properly.

22. Use the graph to determine the volume of liquid that would have a mass of 30.0 g.

23. Determine the density of the substance by calculating the slope of the graph line.

24. Using the density calculated in #23, determine the volume of liquid that would have a mass of 250.0 g.

25. Using the density calculated in #23, determine the mass of 75.0 mL of the liquid.
