Density Practice: Worksheet #
Calculate density, and identity substances using a density chart.
Density is a measure of the amount of mass in a certain volume. This physical
property is often used to identify and classify substances. It is usually expressed in
grams per cubic centimeters, or g/cm3. The chart on the right lists the densities of
some common materials.

Name:
Density Column
Density is a physical property of matter that can be calculated if the mass
and volume are known. The formula for density is: D=m/v. In the examples on
this page, mass is in grams. Liquid volume is in milliliters and the volume of
the solid objects is in cubic centimeters.
The following list contains information for four
liquids and two solid objects. Complete the density
table below by determining the density of each object.
•
a yellow liquid with a mass of 2.8 g and a volume of 2 mL
•
a green liquid with a mass of 6 g and a volume of 3 mL
•
a red liquid with a mass of 1.8 g and a volume of 2 mL
•
an orange liquid with a mass of 1.3 g and a volume of 1 mL
•
a blue cube with a mass of .8 g and a volume of 2 cm3
•
a pink star with a mass of 2.4 g and a volume of .8 cm3

A student performs an experiment with three unknown fluids and obtains the following
measurements:
(Fluid A: m = 2060 g, V - 2000 mL
Fluid B: m = 672 g, V = 850 mL
Fluid C: m = 990 g, V = 1 100 mL
'
Draw how the fluids would be layered if they were combined in a beaker.

While digging in the backyard, you
find an old coin. Its mass is
26.76 g and its volume is 3 cm.
You think you have found a
diamond. Its mass is 5.28 g and its
volume is 2 cm3.

What did you find?
You find a ring with a mass of
107 g. You fill a graduated cylinder
up with 10 mL of water and put the
ring into the cylinder. The water
rises up to the 15 mL mark. [/-
There is a block on your desk that
acts as a paperweight. Its
measurements are 3 cm by 4 cm by
6 cm. The block has a mass of
184.32 g.
