Calculation

  1. Definition

    ρ = m / V

  2. Rearranged

    ρ = m / V

    ρ = 1 g/mL, m = 10 g, V = 10 mL

    density = 1 g/mL

Inputs

Density
Mass
10 g
Volume
10 mL

No density is assumed for any substance — including water. The density used is the one entered above.

Densities are temperature dependent; use a value measured at your working temperature.

About this calculator

Density relates the mass of a sample to the volume it occupies. Choose which variable to solve for and enter the other two; the units you pick are converted explicitly and shown in the working.

No density value is ever filled in for a named substance. Density is temperature dependent — use the value measured or tabulated for your working temperature.

LabCalc is provided as a calculation aid. Users remain responsible for verifying calculations, units, chemical compatibility, experimental procedures and applicable safety requirements before laboratory use.
