Units of density are mass per unit volume. Unit volume might be a cubic centimeter or a cubic foot, for example. Whatever the size of your sample, a cubic foot of it is always a cubic foot, and the mass of that cubic foot will always be the same.

What is a physical property that always stays the same?
concentration
Example of density dependent factor?
predation, availability of food, disease, parasitism Things that depend on the size of the population, as opposed to density independent factors such as weather, and natural disasters.
How does a hydrometer measure density?
It measured by the density of the size from the hydrometer.
How does density and upthrust compare in size?
Upthrust cancels weight out, weight is there but you do not feel it.
Why it is important to measure the density of cement?
to identify package size,weight=volume*density. if you know density you will know the volume of the bag.
Why density is a size-independent property.?
ensity a size dependent shape
Why is density a size- independent property?
ensity a size dependent shape
Explain why density is a size independent property how does it differ from a size dependent property?
Size independent property is physical properties that do not change when an object changes. Size dependent is physical properties that change when the size of an object changes.
How is density a size-independent property?
Purely from a definitional sense, density is size independent because it depends on the substance in question, not how much of it you have. From a mathematical sense, density is mass/volume. If the mass is equally distributed throughout the volume, then half of the volume, for example would have half the mass, preserving the same value of density.
Why is an object's mass a size dependent property while its density is a size independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
Is density size dependent or size independent?
size independent
Why is an object's mass a size-dependent physical property while its density is a size-independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
How do you find the density of large objects that cannot be displaced?
density is an intensive property of material independent of its size. So if it cant be displaced take a part of that.
Is humidity an extensive property?
Humidity is an intensive physical property, since it is independent of the size of the system and of the amount of material within the system. Other examples are: temperature and density.
Why is the density of a substance independent of sample size?
Density is an intensive quantity which means it is independent of size. This can be seen from the definition of density. Density = mass/volume So if the sample size increases than so does the mass, but the density remains unchanged.
Why is an objects mass a size dependent physical property while its density is a size independent physical properties?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
What determines if a property is size-dependent?
So a size dependent property is going to be a property that duh.. depends on the size. Like mass, volume etc. A size independent property is going to be a property that is intrinsic to the object, regardless of size. For example: the color of something. if you have a purple flower, the color of the flower does not change if you have two or three or four of them. density of an object is also another one.
