QUESTION: If 1000. mL of linseed oil has a mass of 929 g, calculate the density of linseed oil.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
A substance's density is determined by how much space it occupies (volume) in relation to its mass. The density of a substance is determined by the mass, size, and arrangement of its atoms. The substance's density is determined by dividing its mass by volume. If m denotes the mass of the substance and V denotes the volume of the substance then density can be expressed as
\(\rho = \frac{m}{V}\)
