  1. Chapter 3.4 Density The ratio between the object’s mass and its volume.

  2. SI Units Symbol Base Unit Abbrev. Quantity Length l meter m Mass m kilogram kg Volume v cm3 cubic centimeter Temp T kelvin K

  3. Density • Density = • Density is a characteristic (physical) property that depends only on the composition of a substance, not on the size of the sample. • The composition of a mixture can vary therefore the density can vary. Mass Volume M V D =

  4. Density Mass (g) Volume (cm3)

  5. Sample Problem 3-5 A copper penny has a mass of 3.1g and a volume of 0.35 cm3. What is the density of copper? Density = mass volume Density = 3.1g 0.35 cm3 = 8.8571 g/cm3 = 8.9 g/cm3
