Density is an intensive quantity which means it is independent of size. This can be seen from the definition of density. Density = mass/volume So if the sample size increases than so does the mass, but the density remains unchanged.
it has no effect. density of a substance is the same no matter the size or shape of the sample.
No. Density is an INTRINSIC property, and as such it does NOT depend on the size of the sample.
No. That's the beauty of "density". It's a characteristic of the substance, and the size of the sample has no effect on it. As long as the sample is pure, a pinhead of it has the same density as a truckload of it.
Mass and volume are extensive properties, which are dependent upon the size of the sample. A larger sample will have a greater mass and volume than a smaller sample. Density is an intensive property, which does not depend on the size of the sample. Density is a ratio of mass to volume, which does not vary with the size of the sample. The density of a larger sample will be the same as the density of a smaller sample.
None. That's why density is such a useful concept. It's a characteristic of the substance, and doesn't depend on the size of the sample. A microscopic dot has the same density as a truckload of the same substance.

Density reason is that the density of a uniform material is constant Density is independent of the size and shape of the sample.
Any sample size of a particular substance will have the same density.
Density = mass / volume As sample size increases, both mass and volume increase in the same ratio.

All intrinsic properties will be the same regardless of sample size. Some examples would be density, color, temperature, chemical reactivity, etc.

Purely from a definitional sense, density is size independent because it depends on the substance in question, not how much of it you have. From a mathematical sense, density is mass/volume. If the mass is equally distributed throughout the volume, then half of the volume, for example would have half the mass, preserving the same value of density.
