The density of an object is calculated by dividing its mass (in grams) by its volume (in milliliters).
Density = mass / volume
Density = 249 g / 247 mL
Density = 1.0081 g/mL
Since the volume is given with 3 significant figures, the density should also be reported with 3 significant figures.
Therefore, the density of the urine sample is 1.01 g/mL.
If a urine sample has a mass of 249. g and a volume of 247. mL, what is its density in
g
-? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant figures.
