Step-by-step solution for: Density And Volume In Metric Worksheet By Teach Simple, 57% OFF
Problem: Solving for Density
The density formula is given as:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
We will use this formula to solve each problem step by step.

Problem 1:
A piece of silver has a mass of 72 grams and a volume of \(9 \, \text{cm}^3\). What is the density of the piece of silver?
#### Solution:
Using the density formula:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{72 \, \text{g}}{9 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
\text{Density} = 8 \, \text{g/cm}^3
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{8 \, \text{g/cm}^3}
\]

Problem 2:
A block of wood has a mass of 360 grams and a density of \(60 \, \text{g/cm}^3\). What is the volume of the block of wood?
#### Solution:
Rearrange the density formula to solve for volume:
\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{360 \, \text{g}}{60 \, \text{g/cm}^3}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
\text{Volume} = 6 \, \text{cm}^3
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{6 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
---
Problem 3:
A glass coffee cup has a density of \(2 \, \text{g/mL}\) and a volume of \(5 \, \text{mL}\). What is the mass of the coffee cup?
#### Solution:
Rearrange the density formula to solve for mass:
\[
\text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Mass} = 2 \, \text{g/mL} \times 5 \, \text{mL}
\]
Perform the multiplication:
\[
\text{Mass} = 10 \, \text{g}
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{10 \, \text{g}}
\]
---
Problem 4:
A highlighter has a mass of 1.5 grams and a volume of \(6 \, \text{cm}^3\). What is the density of the highlighter?
#### Solution:
Using the density formula:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{1.5 \, \text{g}}{6 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
\text{Density} = 0.25 \, \text{g/cm}^3
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{0.25 \, \text{g/cm}^3}
\]
---
Problem 5:
A wedding ring has a mass of 6 grams and a volume of \(2 \, \text{cm}^3\). What is the density of the wedding ring?
#### Solution:
Using the density formula:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{6 \, \text{g}}{2 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
\text{Density} = 3 \, \text{g/cm}^3
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{3 \, \text{g/cm}^3}
\]
---
Problem 6:
A glass plate has a density of \(20 \, \text{g/cm}^3\) and a volume of \(10 \, \text{cm}^3\). What is the mass of the glass plate?
#### Solution:
Rearrange the density formula to solve for mass:
\[
\text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Mass} = 20 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \times 10 \, \text{cm}^3
\]
Perform the multiplication:
\[
\text{Mass} = 200 \, \text{g}
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{200 \, \text{g}}
\]
---
Problem 7:
The mass of a bag of dog food is 100 grams. If its volume is \(25 \, \text{cm}^3\), what is its density?
#### Solution:
Using the density formula:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}
\]
Substitute the given values:
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{100 \, \text{g}}{25 \, \text{cm}^3}
\]
Perform the division:
\[
\text{Density} = 4 \, \text{g/cm}^3
\]
#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{4 \, \text{g/cm}^3}
\]
---
