If an object has a mass of 8.75 pounds and a volume of .358 liters, what is the density of the object?

Question

Second part of my post lab questions. 

Answer 1

Density is mass/volume so just substitute numbers in to get 8.75 pounds/0.358 liters = 24.44 pounds/liter = density.

If you want the density in the more acceptable terms of g/L, then simply convert 24.44 pounds to grams.

24.44 lbs x 454 g/lb = 11096 g

So density would be an extraordinary 11,096 g/L  (not a realistic value).  You may want to check your values.
