Density

Front

What is the formula for calculating density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

What are the common units for measuring density?

Back

g/mL or g/cm³

Front

If an object has a density greater than 1 g/cm³, what will it do in water?

Back

It will sink.

Front

If an object has a density less than 1 g/cm³, what will it do in water?

Back

It will float.

Front

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

Back

Density is the ratio of mass to volume.

Front

How does temperature affect the density of a substance?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, density decreases.

Front

What is the density of water at 4°C?

Back

1 g/cm³

Front

Why do helium balloons rise in air?

Back

Because helium is less dense than the surrounding air.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its mass increases while its volume remains constant?

Back

The density increases.
