Question

a sample of a substance that has a density of .824 g/ml has a mass of .451 g. calculate the volume of the sample

Answer 1

d=m/v

0.824 = 0.451/v
Find v.

Answer 2

that would be 1.827 right

Answer 3

Yes.

Answer 4

what wouldnt it be .547 because V=m/density?

Answer 5

No. d=m/v so v=d/m

Answer 6

no because if i put 1.827 in the left side of the equation it wont equal .824

Answer 7

oh wait nevermind, im getting myself confused. lol thanks

Answer 8

Oh my bad, the answer is 0.451/0.824, but the formula is correct.

Answer 9

So yes, it is 0.547.

Answer 10

I mixed it up when entering it into my calculator.

Answer 11

no it is 1.827 becuase d =.824 and m =.451 so .824/.451=1.827

Answer 12

no wait, im confused

Answer 13

OKAY.
so it is 0.451/0.824, so the answer is 0.547.
