Answer:

The mass of a block is 5.87g and its volume is 1.45mL, what is the density?

This question is asking to find density with knowns of mass and volume.

This is the formula used for problems related to Density.

P=M

__

V

P=Density

V= volume

M=Mass

Input variables, solve and simplify

Identify knowns

m=5.87 g

v=1.45L

Convert units

V=1.45 mL .1dm³/1 mL. V=1.45 dm³

Plug-in values

P=5.87g/1.45dm³

Divide the numbers

P=4.048275862 g/dm³

Convert units

P=4.048275862 kg/m³

Check unit of measurement

Density is measured in kilogram per meter cubed.

Solution

P=4.048275862 kg/m³
