What is Density?

Back

Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. It is calculated using the formula: Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What are the two measurements that make up Density?

Back

Mass and Volume.

Front

How do you calculate Density?

Back

Density = Mass (g) / Volume (mL) or cm³.

Front

If an object has a mass of 30 g and a volume of 10 mL, what is its density?

Back

Density = 30 g / 10 mL = 3 g/mL.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its mass increases but its volume stays the same?

Back

The density increases.

Front

What happens to the density of an object if its volume increases but its mass stays the same?

Back

The density decreases.

Front

Which liquid is less dense: oil or water?

Back

Oil is less dense than water.

Front

Why do different liquids form layers when mixed?

Back

Different liquids form layers because they have different densities.

Front

Which liquid is the most dense: oil, water, or syrup?

Back

Syrup is the most dense.

Front

What is the density of water?

Back

The density of water is approximately 1 g/mL.
