Question

When solving a problem it is important to identify your given and needed units, but it is also important to understand the relationship between those units so you will know how to set up your equation in order to solve the problem.

Review the data sets below and use the steps of the problem-solving method to determine whether the given measurements would be appropriate for calculating mass, volume, or density.

Drag the appropriate data sets to their respective bins.

Explanation / Answer

For calculating mass

1. 18 ml of cooking oil with density 0.92 g/ml

Density = mass / volume

Mass = 18 ml *0.92 g/ml

Mass = 16.56 g

2. 32 cm3 sample of gold with density 19.3 g/cm3

Density = mass / volume

Mass = 32cm3*19.2 g/cm3

Mass = 614.4 gm

For calculating volume

1. 5 g of balsa wood with density 0.16 g/cm3

Density = mass / volume

volume = 1.5 g / *0.16 g/cm3

Volume = 9.375 cm3

2. 150 g

of iron. With density 79g/cm 3

Density = mass / volume

volume = 150 g / * 79 g/cm3

Volume = 1.8 cm3

For calculating density

1. 43.2 g of tablet with 20 cm3 of space

Density = mass /volume

Density = 43.2/20

Density= 2.16 g/cm3

2. 5 cm3 of tablets weighs 10.8 g

Density = mass /volume

Density = 10.8/5

Density= 2.16 g/cm3
