Density
Directions: Solve each problem below. Show your work and circle your answers.
Example: A student has a sample of aluminum that has a mass of 27 g and a volume of 10 cm3. What is the
density of aluminum?
Density = mass/volume
Density = 27 g / 10 cm3
Density = 2.7 g/cm3
1. A loaf of bread has a mass of 500 g and volume of 2500 cm3. What is the density of the bread?
2. A block of wood has a mass of 6.0 g and a volume of 12.0 cm3. What is the density of the block of wood?
3. The density of a substance is 4.0 g/cm3. If a sample of the substance has a volume of 25 cm3, then what is
its mass?
4. You have a lead ball with a mass of 420 g. The density of lead is 10.5 g/cm3. Find the volume of the ball.
5. A student has a block. It is 2 cm wide, 3 cm tall, and 25 cm long. It has a mass of 600 g. Find the density.
