Volume is the product of which of the following?

• B. mass and density
• C. density and length
• D. mass and temperature

Answer: (A)

Verified step by step guidance

1. Recall the definition of density, which is given by the formula \(\text{density} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\).
2. Rearrange the density formula to solve for volume: \(\text{volume} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}}\).
3. Recognize that dividing by density is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, so \(\text{volume} = \text{mass} \times \frac{1}{\text{density}}\).
4. Understand that volume is therefore the product of mass and the reciprocal of density, not mass and density or any other combination.
5. Conclude that the correct relationship for volume is mass multiplied by the reciprocal of density.
