Density Practice
Calculate the density, mass or volume from the given information. Circle your final answer
and don’t forget to show your work!
1. Calculate the density of a material that has a mass of 52.457g and a volume of 13.5cm 3.
2. A student finds a rock on the way to school. In the lab, he determines that the volume
of the rock is 22.7cm3 and the mass is 39.943g. What is the density of the rock?
3. If 30.943g of a liquid occupy a space of 35.0mL, what is the density of the liquid in
g/cm3?
4. The density of silver is 10.49g/cm3. If a sample of pure silver has a volume of
12.993cm3, what would be the mass?
5. How many grams of tin would occupy 5.5L, if it has a density of 7.265g/cm 3?
6. What is the mass of a 350cm3 sample of pure silicon with a density of 2.336g/cm3?
7. Pure gold has a density of 19.32g/cm3. How large would a piece of gold be if it had a
mass of 318.97g?
