Density = mass / volume. So, to get a greater density, you'll either need to have a greater mass, or a smaller volume - or a combination of the two.

What happens to density when volume or mass is affected?
Density = Mass / Volume Therefore: Increase in Mass --> Increase in Density Increase in Volume --> Decrease in Density and Vice Versa.. :) Hope this helped
If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
If you squeeze the foam you will increase its density why?
By squeezing the foam you are decreasing its volume, whereas its mass remains roughly the same. Therefor, as density is mass/volume, a decrease in volume results in and increase in density.
How does mass affect the density of an object?
By definition, Density = mass/volume If the mass is increased (as you stipulated) and assuming the volume remains the same, the density will likewise increase.
If you increase an objects mass but not its volume what changes?
density.

Can a increase in density result from an increase in mass and no change in volume?
Yes. Density is mass/volume so if mass increases so does density if volume does not change
If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
How does a change volume affect an objects density when mass stays the same?
With constant mass, a decrease in volume will increase the the density. Conversely, an increase in volume will decrease the density.
How can you increase density if mass is constant?
You can increase the density of an object with constant mass by decreasing the object's volume.
How is the density affected by increasing the mass whiule holding the volume constant?
Holding volume constant while increasing mass will increase density. density = mass / volume
If you squeeze the foam you will increase its density why?
By squeezing the foam you are decreasing its volume, whereas its mass remains roughly the same. Therefor, as density is mass/volume, a decrease in volume results in and increase in density.
What happens to density if the volume increase?
must decrease
How does mass affect the density of an object?
By definition, Density = mass/volume If the mass is increased (as you stipulated) and assuming the volume remains the same, the density will likewise increase.
What happens to the density of an object if the mass increases but the volume stays the same?
If the volume remains the same, the density will increase in direct proportion to the increase in mass.
If mass increases and volume stays the same then density?
no density would increase, mass = volume x density if we assume that the volume of the substance cannot change then the only way to increase mass would be if that substance became more dense.
What effect does an increase in pressure have on the density of a material?
When pressure increases the volume of the material decreases. Density=mass/volume When volume decreases density increases.(Mass constant)
