Solution

Density :

  • The density of a material is the measure of how densely it is packed together.
  • It is expressed as mass per unit volume.

Density representation:

  • Density is represented by ρ .
  • Since density, is mass per unit volume, so its formula is:
  • ρ=MassVolume
  • Density is generally expressed in grams per cubic centimetre.

Density of water:

  • At 25 degrees Celsius, water has a density of 997kgm-3.
  • The density of pure water is 1gcm-3(1000kgm-3).
