Calculating Density
Follow these steps in order to solve the following problems
*you will be graded on showing the work as well as the answer*
* the points that will be awarded for each problem are listed off to the side*

Sample A metal bar has a mass of 10 grams and a volume of 5 mL. Calculate the density
Problem of that metal bar.

1 pt Step #1: Write out the formula. D = M ÷ V

2 pts Step #2: Write out the numbers that D = ? You have been given M = 10 grams In the problem V = 5 milliliter

2 pts Step #3: Replace the letters in the equation D = 10 grams / 5 milliliter With the numbers that you Know from the problem.

1 pt Step #4: Solve the problem and write your answer D = 2 grams/milliliter You may abbreviate the units D = 2 g/mL

**Notice that you are only awarded 1 point for the answer and 4 points for the other work. This needs to be done so we can see where mistakes are made in the event that you get the wrong answer.**
