Volume Formula:
From: | To: |
Definition: This calculator converts mass in grams to volume in milliliters using the substance's density.
Purpose: It helps in chemistry, cooking, and other fields where you need to convert between mass and volume measurements.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The mass is divided by the density to get the equivalent volume.
Details: Accurate conversions are essential for precise measurements in laboratory work, pharmaceutical preparations, and cooking recipes.
Tips: Enter the mass in grams and the substance's density in g/mL (default 1.0 for water). All values must be > 0.
Q1: What is density?
A: Density is mass per unit volume, typically measured in grams per milliliter (g/mL) for liquids.
Q2: What's the density of water?
A: Pure water has a density of 1.0 g/mL at 4°C, which is used as the standard reference.
Q3: Where can I find density values for other substances?
A: Density tables are available in chemistry references, material safety data sheets (MSDS), or online databases.
Q4: Does temperature affect density?
A: Yes, density typically decreases with increasing temperature for liquids and gases.
Q5: Can I use this for non-liquid substances?
A: Yes, as long as you have the correct density value, it works for solids and gases too.
