Density has dimensions - for instance grammes per cubic centimetre. Relative density is dimensionless - it is a density compared to another density - it is a dimensionless ratio. Normally the ratio is based on water, which has a density of 1g/cm3, so density and relative density are usually the same number - one with units, one without.

∙ 14y agoWeight is not involved in density.
Density is defined as (mass of a sample or object) divided by (volume of the same sample).
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoDensity (D) and Mass (M) are related through Volume (V) in the following relationship:
D = M/V
That is, density is mass per unit volume.

Distinguish between mass density and weight density?
The difference is that the mass density not effect by gravity but weight density effect by gravity. for example if mass density cotn in earth equal to 20 kg/m3 and weight density equal to 196.2 N/m3 this cotn will change the weight density in the moon but mass density not change because gravity moon diffrent to gravity earth mass density =mass/volume (no gravity) weight density= (mass * gravity)/volume (gravity)
Does weight define an objects mass?
No, weight is a force. Mass is proportional to density.
How to calculate weight of Expandable Polystyrene Thermocol if density is given?
density= mass/ volume (if you want the weight then you have to multiply the mass by 9.8, however I am sure that you mean the mass. Mass= kg, Weight= Newtons)
How is weight different than density?
density is weight compared to size and how much mass is in object weight is just weight.
Is density defined as a mass per unit of weight?
No, density is mass per unit volume.
How does size relate to density?
Density = Mass/Volume or mass/size.
How does physical science relate to mass volume and density?
The density is the ratio between mass and volume. So density = mass / volume
What is the formula for calculating weight if density and volume are given?
Weight = (density) times (volume)The definition of density is mass/volume .Now [ weight = mass x gravity ], so [ mass = weight/gravity ], and [ density = weight/gravity x volume ] .So Weight = (density) x (volume) x (gravity)
Does density relate to how heavy an object is?
No . Mass

Does density relate mass to volume?
D=m/v Density equals mass divided by volume.
Does density of an object depend on the gravity of the object?
Density is not affected by gravity. Density is affected by mass and volume, such that density = mass/volume. Weight, but not mass, is affected by gravity. Weight and mass are not the same thing.
How can you convert grams into milliliters?
Gram is a unit of mass. Milliliter is a unit of volume. The way they relate is by the density of the specific substance. Density = mass/volume, so if you know mass and density, then volume = mass/density.
How do density and volume relate?
Density is mass divided by volume (D = m/V); in other words, density is the mass of an object in a specific volume.
How would density relate to liter?
Liter is a measure of volume. Volume = mass/density.
What is the formula for volume if given density?
The formula for mass if density is not given is mass=volume/power
Why is mass and weight necessary to find density?
the definition of density is the amount of mass contained in a set volumeto find density one must know mass and volume the equation is as follows: density= mass/volume hence, weight is not necessary to find density
