They are not the same. Density is a property of matter, namely what it weights per unit volume. E.g., the matter water weights about 1 g per cm^3.

Does density change if the sample of the same matter is larger?
No density if a characteristic of matter. Density can vary with temperature and pressure, but a chunk of something twice the volume of another chunk of the same substance will weigh twice as much because the two chunks have the same density.
What is the density of a metal if you cut it in half and the original density was 8.4?
The density is the ratio of mass to volume. It doesn't matter what size the piece of metal, if it is the same metal it has the same density, 8.4.
Does 100 grams of something have the same density as 200 grams of the same matter?
No. There will always be more density (however small) when you increase the size or amount of something
Why is density considered an intrinsic property of matter?
Matter has got mass. Matter occupy space. The formula of density is mass upon volume. So matter has got density. So matter has to have density. That is why density is considered as intrinsic property of the matter.
Why is density an important physical property of matter?
Density is an intensive property because it does not depend on the amount of matter present. If you have 2 grams of copper and 2000 grams of copper, they are going to have the same density. This cannot be said for extensive properties such as volume: 2 grams of copper will not have the same volume as 2000 grams of copper.See related questions below for more information.
The density of a small piece of matter and a large piece of matter of the same matter are?
If the material is pure and homogeneous, i.e. "the same throughout", then the density is independent of the size of the sample. A chip the size of a pinhead and a chunk the size of a truck have the same density.
Is density a extensive property of a substance?
Density is an intrinsic property, not an extensive property of matter. This is because it DOES NOT depend on the size of the sample (amount). The density of a small piece of matter is the same as the density of a larger piece of that same matter.
Does the amount of matter you have change the density of the matter?
The density will change if the amount of matter in the same volume changes. You can have more matter wihtout changing the density, if the matter occupies more space.
Will density always stay the same no matter what size the object is?
Density of the substance will always stay the same. Density of the object will also stay the same if solid, no matter the size, but not if it is carved out. That is why a steel boat can float
Does density change if the sample of the same matter is larger?
No density if a characteristic of matter. Density can vary with temperature and pressure, but a chunk of something twice the volume of another chunk of the same substance will weigh twice as much because the two chunks have the same density.
What is the effect of shape on the density of samples of the same material?
it has no effect. density of a substance is the same no matter the size or shape of the sample.
Does one ml have the same density of 15 liters?
Any sample of the same substance has the same density,no matter how large or small the sample is.
Is density of you beam the same with density of steel?
The density of a substance stays the same, no matter how much space it takes up.
What is the density of a metal if you cut it in half and the original density was 8.4?
The density is the ratio of mass to volume. It doesn't matter what size the piece of metal, if it is the same metal it has the same density, 8.4.
Why is density a useful property for identifying matter?
It is useful because no matter how much you have of the same substance, it will always have the same density. The mathematical equation to find the density of matter is to divide the mass by the volume. So you get an average, the density. Water has a density of 1. However, oil has a density of something like .9, so it floats on water. That way, by just looking at the numbers, you can tell what is what.
Is it possible to have diffferent volumes yet same density?
Since Density=Volume/Mass, and the mass increases as the volume increases they will always have the same density no matter how big it is.
How does shape differ density?
If you use a homogenous (uniform) material, it doesn't. No matter what shape you put it into, the density should be the same.If you use a homogenous (uniform) material, it doesn't.
