Density 8th

Front

What is the formula for calculating density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

If an object has a mass of 10g and a volume of 2cm³, what is its density?

Back

5 g/cm³

Front

What is the unit of measurement for density in the metric system?

Back

g/cm³

Front

How does temperature affect the density of a substance?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, density decreases for liquids and gases.

Front

What is the relationship between density and buoyancy?

Back

An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid it is in; it will sink if its density is greater.

Front

What is the density of water at 4°C?

Back

1 g/cm³

Front

How can you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object?

Back

By using the water displacement method.

Front

What happens to the density of a gas when it is compressed?

Back

The density increases.

Front

What is the significance of a density greater than 1 g/cm³ for an object in water?

Back

It will sink.

Front

What is the significance of a density less than 1 g/cm³ for an object in water?

Back

It will float.
