What is density?

Back

Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. It is calculated using the formula: Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What is the formula to calculate density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

If an object has a volume of 17 mL and a mass of 212g, what is its density?

Back

12.4 g/mL.

Front

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

Back

Common units include g/cm³ and g/mL.

Front

How does temperature affect the density of a substance?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, density decreases because substances expand.

Front

What is the relationship between mass, volume, and density?

Back

Density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
