How Mass and volume can affect the density of the volume?
The definition of density is mass per unit volume. For any object or sample of a substance, it can be calculated as (mass) divided by (volume). If two objects or samples with the same volume have different masses, the one with the greater mass has greater density. If two objects or samples with the same mass have different volumes, the one with the greater volume has smaller density.
Why does same sized piece of wood is lighter than iron piece?
The wood is "lighter" (weighs less; has less mass) than the iron because of it's density. Iron has a greater density than wood, and density is defined as mass/volume, so having the same volume (size), the iron will have a greater mass.
If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the water that it displaces what will happen?
It will sink, because it has a greater density (the same volume weighing more)
Can two objects have the same volume but not the same density?
no density equals mass divided by volume. if both solids have a mass of 100 grams (for example) one has a volume of 100 mL (or centimeters cubed), it's density is 1 g/mL if the other has a volume of only 50 mL it's density is 2 g/mL
Why does the object with same volume and different mass has a greater density?
an object is more dense if there is more weight in the same area, its because of the amount of particles and the weight of the particles. eg, 1cm cubed of gold would weigh alot more than 1cm cubed polystyrene, so gold is more dense
What is the relationship between mass and density when the volume of each liquid is the same?
For two liquids of the same volume, the liquid with a higher density will have greater mass. Similarly, the liquid with a greater mass has a higher density. This is only true for samples of equal volume, however.
Why are solids USUALLY more dense liquids and gases?
Solids are usually more dense because solids have a smaller volume than liquids or gases, so the same amount of mass is in a smaller volume, making the density greater.
If Object A and Object B both have the same volume but object B has a greater mass which object is more dense?
object B has greater density recall the formula for density is = mass/volume since volume is the same, a greater mass will give a greater density
How would the densities of the sphere and cube have compared if the masses of the cube and sphere had been the same but the volume of the cube had been greater?
Density = Mass/Volume, whatever the shape. So, if the masses are the same, the density is greater when the volume id smaller. Thus the sphere, with the smaller volume has the greater density.

What has a different shape but the same volume in any container?
In a really general way of answering this (I am not going to put this into context) assuming the substances have the same mass,a substance (X) with a density n greater than a substance (Y), will have a volume that is equal to (X)n-(Y) this means that the object with the same mass, but greater density, would have a volume that is less than the object with the lesser density.
As the molecular mass of a nonpolar liquids increase the boiling points does what?
If the mass increases with the volume (ie if the density remains the same) then the boiling point remains constant. If the volume remains contstant with rising mass (ie greater density) then the boiling point increases.
Which has greater weight a kilogram of butter of kilogram of lead what is greater density which has greater volume?
They both weigh the same: 1kg = 1kg. The kg of butter has a greater volume and the kg of lead has a higher density.
If a mineral has the same mass as quartz but has a greater volume how will density compare to the quartz?
The density will be lower.
You have density of 3 equal size balls if density of one ball is twice that of the other 2 what conclusion can you draw about its mass?
Density is mass divided by volume. If the density is greater and the volume is the same then the mass must also be greater for the same size balls.
Explain what will happen to the mass volume and density of a liquid as the temperature increases?
If density = mass/volume, and your volume increases while mass remains the same... Then the denominator increases which would decrease the density
If you have the same volume and the mass changes what happens to the density?
The density changes in direct proportion with the mass. A lesser mass results in a lesser density and a greater mass results in a greater density.
