What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. It determines how heavy an object is for its size.

Front

Which liquid is the most dense?

Back

Syrup is the most dense liquid among oil, water, and a plastic bottle.

What is the difference between conduction and convection?

Back

Conduction is heat transfer through direct contact, while convection is heat transfer through the movement of fluids.

Front

What is an example of convection in everyday life?

Back

An example of convection is the way warm air rises and cool air sinks in a room, creating a circulation of air.
