Density Worksheet: Chapter 2
Please answer all questions as completely as possible showing all calculation and work
needed. Also don’t forget to include your units!
Density = Mass / Volume
1. The density of a piece of brass is 8.4 g/cm3. If the mass of the brass is 510 g, find the
volume of the brass.
2. Calculate the density of a material that has a mass of 52.457 g and a volume of 13.5 cm3
3. A student finds a rock on the way to school. In the laboratory he determines that the volume
of the rock is 22.7 mL, and the mass is 39.943 g. What is the density of the rock?
4. The density of silver is 10.49 g/cm3. If a sample of pure silver has a volume of 12.9993 cm3,
what is the mass?
5. What is the mass of a 350 cm3 sample of pure silicon with a density of 2.336 g/cm3?
