Density

Why does a helium balloon float in air?

• It is less dense than air

• It is more dense than air

• It is colder than the air

• it is hotter than the air

What is the density of water?

• 3 g/mL

• 1 g/mL

• 0.5 g/mL

• 6 g/mL

What is density?

• The amount of mass per volume

• The amount of volume per mass

• The amount of pressure per volume

• The amount of pressure per mass

How could two objects have different volumes, but still have the same mass?

• If they both have the same density

• If the larger object has a lower density

• If the smaller object has a lower density

• If the larger object has a higher density.

If I add salt to water, the mixture becomes...

• less dense than before

• no change

• more dense than before
