Is volume mass and density changed by pressing a piece of styrofaom to halve its size?

The mass isn't changed. Since the volume is decreased, the quantity (mass/volume)
is increased, meaning that the density is increased.

If your volume has changed how will your density change?
It will be reduced.
Does changing the mass or volume of an object change it's density?
Yes if the both are not changed proportionately, Density = mass/volume.
What is The degree of compactness of a substance is the definition for what?
Compactness is the ability of a material to reduce its volume by pressing.
How can you change the overall density of an object?
In a simple way, since density = mass /volume, the density of an object can be changed by changing either mass or volume of an object .
What is the equation for mass volume and density?
Mass = Density x Volume Density = Mass/Volume Volume = Mass/Density
How do you change the mass or volume of a gas in order to decrease the density?
- modifying the temperature- modifying the pressure- modifying the volume
What is Density how is Calculated How does density change?
density is how dense an object is (see dense) it is calculated by dividing the mass by volume of an object. density can be changed by changing the size or shape or the object
Why is an object's mass a size dependent property while its density is a size independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
What changes if the degree (amount) of intermolecular bonds of a substance are changed?
density of a substance and volume of a substance
Why is an objects mass a size dependent physical property while its density is a size independent physical properties?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
Why is an object's mass a size-dependent physical property while its density is a size-independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
The buoyancy of an object can be changed by changing the object's average density true or false?
The upthrust depends on the volume of object if volume is more the liquid displaced will be more and the force per unit area will increase and density is equal to mass per unit volume so by density the buoyancy.
