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).

Front

How do you calculate density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What are the units for measuring density?

Back

The units for density are grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).

Front

If an object has a mass of 10g and a volume of 5cm³, what is its density?

Back

Density = 10g / 5cm³ = 2 g/cm³.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its mass increases but its volume stays the same?

Back

The density increases.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its volume increases but its mass stays the same?

Back

The density decreases.

Front

In a density column, where is the substance with the highest density located?

Back

At the bottom of the column.

Front

Which has a higher density: a rock or a feather?

Back

A rock has a higher density than a feather.

Front

What is the density of water?

Back

The density of water is approximately 1 g/cm³.

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.
