Mass, Volume, and Density

Front

Anything made of matter must _____________________.

Back

take up space and have mass.

Front

Which units are used for density?

Back

g/mL ("grams per milliliter").

Front

What is the formula for density?

Back

density = mass ÷ volume.

Front

Suppose an astronaut were to visit a planet where the gravity is half of Earth's gravity. The astronaut's WEIGHT on that planet would be ______________.

Back

half of their Earth weight.

Front

What is the mass on this triple beam?

Back

272.5g.

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in grams (g).

Front

What is volume?

Back

Volume is the amount of space an object occupies, typically measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm³).

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume, often expressed in grams per milliliter (g/mL).

Front

How does temperature affect density?

Back

Generally, as temperature increases, density decreases because substances expand.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and weight?

Back

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, while mass is the amount of matter in the object.
