Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.13 Density as a Property (Enrichment) skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Sample M has a mass of 12 g and a volume of 15 mL. Sample N has a mass of 16 g and a volume of 20 mL. Both samples float in water. A student claims they must be different materials because one sample has more mass. Which response is best?
AThe samples could be the same material because both have density 0.8 g/mL
BThe samples cannot be compared because they float
CThe sample with more mass must always be more dense
DThe student is correct because 16 g is greater than 12 g
Solution & Explanation:Sample M has density 12 divided by 15, or 0.8 g/mL. Sample N has density 16 divided by 20, also 0.8 g/mL. Matching density suggests they could be the same material.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which investigation compares density most fairly for three different materials?
AChoose the sample that looks heaviest
BCompare only how high each sample bounces
CUse different measurement tools for each sample and compare only mass
DMeasure mass with the same balance, measure volume with an appropriate method for each sample, and calculate density for all three
Solution & Explanation:A fair density comparison uses consistent mass measurements, correct volume measurements, and the density calculation for every sample.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A material has density 2 g/mL. If one piece of the material has a volume of 7 mL, what is its mass in grams?
Solution & Explanation:Mass equals density times volume. 2 g/mL times 7 mL equals 14 g.
