Front

What is the formula for density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

What is the unit of density in the metric system?

Back

g/cm³ (grams per cubic centimeter)

Back

5 g/cm³

Front

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

Back

Density increases.
