Volume using mass and density
« on: December 15, 2004, 06:34:20 PM »
Yes It is Indeed finials season.

"What is the volume of a metal object that has a mass of 2.5g and a density of 15.0 g/mL?"

Im sure this is incredibly easy but if you could just give me a fromula to work with it would be greatly appreciated!

Check your math on the equation you just came up with.  You're almost there, but the equation is slightly off.
