Density Flashcard

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).

Front

How do you calculate density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What happens to density if mass increases while volume remains constant?

Back

The density will increase.

Front

What happens to density if volume increases while mass remains constant?

Back

The density will decrease.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the volume of a cube?

Back

Volume = side length × side length × side length (s³).

Front

What is the volume of an object with a length of 5 cm, width of 5 cm, and height of 5 cm?

Back

Volume = 5 cm × 5 cm × 5 cm = 125 cm³.

Front

What are the three main compositional layers of the Earth?

Back

Crust, Mantle, and Core.

Front

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

Back

Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume.

Front

If two objects have the same volume but different masses, which one has a higher density?

Back

The object with the greater mass has a higher density.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for density?

Back

The unit of measurement for density is grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
