Volume V = length l × width w × height h
mass m = density ρ × Volume V
The first graph shows data gathered by a student in SC 130 physical science.
__________ _____ Calculate the density ρ of the soap (include units!).
______________ Will the soap floatorsink?
______________ Toughie: Based on the density, what brand of soap is the above bar?
__________ _____ A student measures a bar of soap with a length of 8.0 cm, a width of 5.4 cm, and a height of 2.6 cm. What is the volume of the soap?
__________ _____ A student measures a bar of soap with a length of 8.0 cm, a width of 5.4 cm, and a height of 2.6 cm. The soap has a mass of 88.0 grams. What is the density of the soap?
___________ _____ A bar of soap is found to have a density of 1.3 g/cm³. If the volume of the soap is 50 cm³, what is the mass of the soap?
___________ _____ A lead cube is found to have a density of 11.4 g/cm³. If the mass of the cube is 365 grams, what is the volume of the cube??
Spring 2013 I was puzzled by a blue Lux Wake Me Up soap. I gathered the following data and made the chart shown based on the data.
The slope was 0.9853 g/cm³. When placed in water the soap sank. What is wrong with this? Explain.
