Calculate Average Density











Formula

The formula to calculate the Average Density (D) is:

\[ D = \frac{D1 \cdot V1 + D2 \cdot V2 + D3 \cdot V3}{V1 + V2 + V3} \]

Where:

Average Density Definition

An average density is defined as the total mass per unit of volume of a mixture of 2 or more substances. In the case of the formula above, this is for a mixture with different quantities of each compound.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ D = \frac{2.5 \cdot 100 + 1.5 \cdot 200 + 3.0 \cdot 50}{100 + 200 + 50} = \frac{250 + 300 + 150}{350} = \frac{700}{350} = 2.00 \text{ g/cm³} \]

The Average Density (D) is 2.00 g/cm³.
