Question

The mass unit associated with density is usually grams. If the volume (in mL or cm3 ) is multiplied by the density ( g/mL or g/cm3 ) the volume units will cancel out, leaving only the mass units. Keep in mind that the volume and density must use the same volume unit for the cancellation.

If a large marshmallow has a volume of 2.75 in3 and density of 0.242 g/cm3 , how much would it weigh in grams? 1 in3=16.39 cm3 .

Answer 1

The mass of the marshmallow is 10.9 g.

What is the relationship between mass, volume and density of a substance?

The mass of a substance is the quantity of matter present in that substance.

The volume of a substance is the amount of space a given mass of that substance occupies.

The density of a substance is the ratio of the mass and a given volume of that substance.

Therefore, the relationship between mass, volume and density is given below as:

• Density = mass/ volume

The volume of the marshmallow = 2.75 in³

1 inch³ = 16.39 cm³

volume in cm³ = 16.39 * 2.75 = 45.07 cm³

density of the marshmallow = 0.242 g/cm³

Mass of the marshmallow = 0.242 g/cm³ * 45.07 cm³

Mass of the marshmallow = 10.9 g
