Density Flashcard

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume, usually expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or grams per milliliter (g/mL).

Front

How do you calculate density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = Length × Width × Height.

Front

If an object has a mass of 6 grams and a volume of 2 mL, what is its density?

Back

Density = 6g / 2mL = 3g/mL.

Front

What is the volume of a cube with a side length of 4 cm?

Back

Volume = Side³ = 4cm × 4cm × 4cm = 64 cm³.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for density?

Back

Common units for density include grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) and grams per milliliter (g/mL).

Front

What is the volume of a prism with a base area of 10 cm² and a height of 6 cm?

Back

Volume = Base Area × Height = 10 cm² × 6 cm = 60 cm³.

Front

If an object has a density of 5 g/cm³ and a volume of 3 cm³, what is its mass?

Back

Mass = Density × Volume = 5 g/cm³ × 3 cm³ = 15 g.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its mass increases while its volume remains the same?

Back

The density increases.

Front

What is the density of water?

Back

The density of water is approximately 1 g/cm³.
