What is density?

Back

Density is the measure of mass per unit volume, often expressed in g/cm³ or g/mL.

Front

How do you calculate density?

Back

Density can be calculated using the formula: Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What units are used to measure mass?

Back

Mass is commonly measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).

Front

What units are used to measure volume?

Back

Volume is measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) or milliliters (mL).

Front

What is the relationship between density and buoyancy?

Back

An object will float in a fluid if its density is less than the density of the fluid.

Front

How do you find the volume of an irregular object?

Back

You can find the volume of an irregular object by using water displacement in a graduated cylinder.

Front

What happens to the water level when an object is submerged?

Back

The water level rises by an amount equal to the volume of the submerged object.
