A gram is used to measure...
Mass
A block of wood has a density of 0.75 g/cm3 and a volume of 120 cm3. What is the mass of the block of wood, in grams?
90 grams
What is the equation for density?
Density = Mass/Volume
What is the definition of mass?
How much matter something is made up of.
What is the density of water?
1g/mL
When would I use a cm3 as opposed to an mL?
When measuring the volume of a solid.
Which has a larger volume: a small, heavy rock or a fluffy, light cotton ball?
Volume is how much space something takes up: cotton ball.
A marble has a mass of 5 grams and a volume of 2 cm3. What is the density of the marble, in g/cm3?
2.5 g/cm3
If the density of maple syrup is 2g/mL, and I have 16 grams of syrup, what is the volume of my maple syrup?
8 mL
What happens to the density as I add more mass?
It stays the same. More mass means more volume, and because I divide mass by volume to get density, density always stays the same.
What does the term displacement mean?
A procedure used to measure the volume of a solid object by placing it in a known amount of liquid and finding the difference in the liquid volume measurements before and after
