density

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume, usually expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or grams per milliliter (g/mL).

Front

How do you calculate density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What happens to an object with a density less than water when placed in water?

Back

It will float.

Front

What happens to an object with a density greater than water when placed in water?

Back

It will sink.

Front

What are the units of density?

Back

Common units include grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) and grams per milliliter (g/mL).

Front

If two objects have the same volume but different masses, which one is denser?

Back

The object with the greater mass is denser.

Front

True or False: The density of a material can change with temperature and pressure.

Back

True.

Front

What is the density of an object that has a mass of 10g and a volume of 5cm³?

Back

Density = 10g / 5cm³ = 2 g/cm³.

Front

If an object has a density of 1 g/cm³, will it float in water?

Back

No, it will neither float nor sink; it will be suspended.

Front

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

Back

Density is the ratio of mass to volume.
