Density: Dimensional Analysis

January 24, 2014 By Janice VanCleave

Density is a conversion factor comparing the mass of a specific volume of a substance.

The formula for density is D = m/v
This equation is read: density (D) equals mass (m) divided by volume (V).

There is more than one way to solve density problems. Following are density problems solved with dimensional analysis and using the density formula.
