Density Notes Topic 1
Density- • a substances mass per unit of volume • a physical property • different materials have different densities • Pure water has a density of 1 g/mL
The formula for density is: Density = -------- mass volume
Density triangle • To find the formula for MASS, cover up the m with your finger to get: m = D x v 2. To find the formula for VOLUME, cover up the v with your finger to get: D =m v
