Density

Front

What is the formula for density?

Back

density = mass / volume

Front

If an object has a density of .6 g/mL, will it sink or float in water?

Back

It will float.

Front

Jack has a rock with a mass of 14g and a volume of 2cm³. What is the density of the rock?

Back

7 g/cm³

Front

How much water has been displaced if a submerged object causes a water level rise of 25 mL?

Back

25 mL

Front

What tool is used to measure mass?

Back

triple beam balance

Front

What is the unit of density in the metric system?

Back

g/cm³ or g/mL

Front

How do you calculate the volume of an irregular object using water displacement?

Back

Submerge the object in water and measure the rise in water level.

Front

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

Back

The density increases.

Front

What is the relationship between density and buoyancy?

Back

Objects with a density less than the fluid will float; those with greater density will sink.

Front

If a substance has a density of 1 g/cm³, what will happen if it is placed in water?

Back

It will neither sink nor float; it will be suspended.
