Density Review

Front

What happens to objects with higher density than water?

Back

They sink.

Front

What is the density of water?

Back

1 g/cm³

Front

If an object has a density of 0.37645 g/mL, will it float or sink in water?

Back

It will float.

Front

How do you calculate the volume of an object given its mass and density?

Back

Volume = Mass / Density

Front

What are the units commonly used for density?

Back

g/mL or g/cm³

Front

What is the relationship between density and buoyancy?

Back

Objects with a density less than the fluid will float, while those with a higher density will sink.

Front

How does temperature affect the density of a substance?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, density decreases for liquids and gases.

Front

What is the formula for density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume

Front

What is the significance of a density of 1 g/cm³ in relation to water?

Back

It is the threshold for buoyancy; objects with density less than 1 g/cm³ will float.

Front

How can you determine if an object will float in a liquid?

Back

Compare the object's density to the density of the liquid.
