Why is density a characteristic of a substance and volume and mass are not?
The volume and mass of a substance are independent of the substance itself, but depend upon how much there is of the substance The density of a substance is the relation between how much volume you have of a substance and how much mass that volume has (and vice-versa). It is independent of how much there is of the substance and is thus a characteristic of the substance.
A measure of how much mass there is in a volume of a substance is?
density
Density is a measure of how much what there is in a volume of a substance?
Mass.
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
What is meant by the density of a substance?
It means how much a standard volume of a substance weighs - or more precisely, how much mass it has. If a liter of one substance has more mass than a liter of another substance, the first substance is said to have greater density. Density is defined as mass divided by volume.
When you divide the mass of a substance by its volume you get its what?
When we divide the mass of a substance by its volume we get its density.
When you divide the mass of a substance by it volume you get what?
When we divide the mass of a substance by its volume we get its density.
What is the amount of mass in a give volume of a substance?
The mass of a given volume of a substance depends completely on the density of the substance being analyzed. Density = Mass / Volume
what is the amount of mass given in a given volume of air?
Density of substance = mass of substance / volume mass of substance = density x volume
How the density of a substance can be determined?
Measure the mass and volume of the substance, then divide the mass by the volume.
What is the formula of the percent of volume and percent of mass?
% of volume = 100*(volume of substance that you are interested in)/(total volume) % of mass = 100*(mass of substance that you are interested in)/(total mass).
What will happen to density of a substance if its mass is doubled?
Nothing.Density = mass(kg)/volume(m3)When we double the mass of a substance, the volume of the substance will be double too.= mass*2/(volume*2)= (mass/volume)*(2/2)=(mass/volume)*1so the density will not change.
