(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)

∙ 15y agoThe density of thermocol or polystyrene is 1.64 g/cm3. it can vary due to the mass and volume of the object, the density usually ranges from 5kg/m3 to 12kg/m3.
how do you calculate density
Polystyrene is a common plastic that most of us encounter dozens of times a day in our travels, most often in packaging. The thing about polystyrene is that it has a number of forms (chemical structures). Consider this chemical formula:C6H5CH=CH2This is (monomer) styrene. If we link a bunch of these together, we end up with poly (many) styrene. Consider this chemical formula:(C8H8)nThis depicts the basic (monomer) styrene with the subscript n to denote that a number of different molecules can be made up. And if you guessed that these molecules have different densities, you'd be correct. In general, the density of polystyrene varies from about 1.06 to 1.12 g/cc, so there is no "true" or precise density for polystyrene.
polystyrene / styrofoam plastic wood / cork / ice
Neither. Since they both have a weight of 1kg one cannot be heavier than the other.

because thermocol is lighter than water
in water yes its density is less than density of water
High-Impact Polystyrene, HIPS´ve a density = 1,06 gr/cc
Polystyrene is a plastic that can be made into many products, which can be dense, or can be in the form of a low density foam, called Styrofoam.
Polystyrene is a very poor conductor of heat. This is why its used as an insulator in some products.
Polystyrene is often sold in bulk on a m3 (cubic meter) price in Europe The cost is also effected by the density of the polystyrene. That is assuming your talking of expanded polystyrene foam, polystyrene is also available in hard plastic sheet form. dunno
How can you calculate surface density if the volume density is 1.4 g/cm3
Answer: The raw material of the Polystyrene has a density of around 1.05 g/l, or kg/m3 . which is a little bit more than water's Regarding the processed material there are two main types of polystyrene density-wise;EPS = Expanded PolyStyrene:most used in the range of: 10 - 50 g/lEXPS or XPS = EXtruded PolyStyrene:most used in the range of: 25 - 45 g/l
The seven types of plastic are: Polyethylene terephthalate, High-density polyethylene, Polyvinyl chloride, Low-density polyethylene, polypropylene, Polystyrene, and an unnamed category consisting of plastics that do not fit into the other categories. Polystyrene is often called Styrofoam.
how do you calculate density
It means: * Calculate the density of an object * Calculate the density of its pieces * Compare
