Density

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. It is a measure of how much matter is packed into a given space.

Front

What is the formula for calculating density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

What unit is density commonly measured in?

Back

Density is commonly measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Front

Which has a higher density: a bowling ball or a pillow?

Back

A bowling ball has a higher density than a pillow.

Front

What happens to objects with a density less than water?

Back

Objects with a density less than water (1 g/cm³) will float.

Front

What happens to objects with a density greater than water?

Back

Objects with a density greater than water (1 g/cm³) will sink.

Front

If an object has a mass of 12g and a volume of 4cm³, what is its density?

Back

Density = 12g / 4cm³ = 3 g/cm³.

Front

Which of the following is an example of a low-density object? (Pillow, Bowling Ball, Brick)

Back

Pillow is an example of a low-density object.

Front

Which substance is denser: honey or corn syrup?

Back

Honey is denser than corn syrup.

Front

If a rubber ball has a density of 0.5 g/cm³, will it float in water?

Back

Yes, because its density is less than that of water.
