Investigation 2 Density Review

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume, typically expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Front

Does the density of water change with different volumes or masses?

Back

No, the density of water remains constant regardless of the volume or mass.

Front

What is the formula for calculating volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

V = L x W x H, where L is length, W is width, and H is height.

Front

What is the formula for calculating density?

Back

D = M/V, where D is density, M is mass, and V is volume.

Front

What instrument is used to measure the volume of a liquid?

Back

A graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume of a liquid.

Front

If an object has a length of 6 cm, width of 6 cm, and height of 2 cm, what is its volume?

Back

72 cm³ (calculated using V = L x W x H).

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

How do you convert milliliters to cubic centimeters?

Back

1 milliliter (mL) is equal to 1 cubic centimeter (cm³).

Front

What is the density of an object that has a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 50 cm³?

Back

Density = 100 g / 50 cm³ = 2 g/cm³.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its mass increases while its volume remains the same?

Back

The density increases because density is directly proportional to mass.
