Measuring Matter

If a substance has a large mass and a small volume, what can you conclude about it?

• It's very dense
• It will float on water
• It is made out of rock or metal
• it has a low density

What is the difference between weight and mass?

• Weight depends on gravity and mass is constant
• Weight depends on density and mass depends on gravity
• Weight depends on gravity and mass depends on volume
• Mass depends on gravity and weight is constant

What is always true of an object with a lot of mass?

• It contains a lot of matter
• It has a large volume
• It has a high density
• It cannot be accurately measured

Which of the following is a measurement of an object's mass?

• 10 grams

• 10 centimeters

• 10 newtons

• 10 grams/cm3

If an object's mass is 50 g, and its volume is 10 cm3, what is its density?

• 5 g/cm3
• 500 g/cm3
• 60 g/cm3
• 40 g/cm3
