Density is mass divided by volume. If the volume remains the same, decreasing the mass decreases the volume.

Do you need great pressure change to have a measurable change density in gases?

Density = mass / volume, so to change density you need to change the mass within a fixed volume or the volume of a fixed mass. Increasing the mass or decreasing the volume will increase the pressure by a linear degree, so no, the density of a gas is very easy to change. E.G.: Decreasing the volume by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.1%. Increasing the mass by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.0%.


If an objects volume is unchanged then how will its density change?

It won't change. Density is volume divided by mass, so if volume doesn't change, density doesn't change unless you change the mass of the object.


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 does density change with different objects?

The density changes with different objects as all have different mass and volume(the space an object occupies) and the more compressed(Compact) the object is the more density it has.


What is the density of objects?

Density is mass divided by volume. So: Density= mass/volume


Which term compares an objects mass to its volume?

density is mass divided by volume


How do you find the density of objects?

mass divided by volume... mass/volume=density


How can a small object be densest if it doesn't have the most mass?

Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.


How mass affects an objects density?

Mass divided by volume equals density. For the same volume, if the mass is more then the density is higher.


How is density derived from an objects mass and volume?

mass divided by volume gives the density(M/V=Density)
