Derived UnitsMany quantities you can measure need units other than the seven basic SI units.These units are derived by multiplying or dividing the base units.
Speed is distance divided by time.The derived unit of speed is meters per second (m/s). A rectangle’s area is found by multiplying its length (in meters) by its width (also in meters).Its unit is square meters (m2).
Volume is another commonly used derived unit. The volume of a book can be found by multiplying its length, width, and height. The unit of volume is the cubic meter (m3).
This unit is too large and inconvenient in most labs. Chemists usually use the liter (L).
The density of an object is the mass of the object divided by volume of the object. Densities are expressed in derived units such as g/cm3 or g/mL.
The density of a substance is the same no mater what the size of the sample is.
