If you double the volume of a sample ... scoop up twice as much of it ...
the mass of the sample always doubles. But the density of the substance
doesn't change.
Think about it: The density of some water out of my dog's water bowl is
the same as the density of some water out of Lake Michigan.

How is the density different from mass and volume?
Mass is the amount of matter, volume is the amount of space, and density uses both, it is mass / volume.
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 density of 101 grams?
Can't be answered, you need both weight and volume to calculate density.
Why doesn't mass depend on volume?
Mass (measured as weight) is dependent on both density and volume.
What is the density of oak if the mass is 0.33?
You need to know the volume of the piece.After the tables the density of oak wood is 0,6-0,9 g/cm3.
What happens to the volume of a rectangular pyramid if both its length and its height are doubled and its width halved?
The volume is doubled.
Is volume measured by density?
No. Volume and density are both measures - of different characteristics.
How do you calculate the mass of something using density and volume?
Density = (mass) / (volume) Multiply both sides of the equation by (volume): Mass = (Density) times (volume)
One of the factors affecting density is?
Density = Mass/Volume. As a result, density is entirely dependent on both mass and volume.
Does mass or volume affect the density of the substance?
Yes, both do. Density = Mass/Volume, So density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
What is the density if the mass is 2000 grams?
Density = Mass/Volume. You cannot calculate density without knowing BOTH mass and volume.
What is the new volume of a cylinder if the height and radius are doubled?
If the radius and height of a cylinder are both doubled, then its surface area becomes 4 times what it was originally, and its volume becomes 8 times as much.
How is the density different from mass and volume?
Mass is the amount of matter, volume is the amount of space, and density uses both, it is mass / volume.
How do you calculate volume if you know the mass and density?
Density is by definition mass divided by volume. Therefore volume times density equals mass. Diving both sides of that equation by the density, we get volume equals mass divided by density. So the answer to your question is, divide the mass by the density.
Does changing the mass or volume of an object change it's density?
Yes if the both are not changed proportionately, Density = mass/volume.
How can you convert the formula for density to find the volume of an unknown object?
The formula for finding density is: Density= Mass/Volume or d= m/v. if you multiply both sides of the equation by the Volume: vd= v m/ v , volume cancels on the right and you get the equation: Density x Volume= Mass or dv=m. by dividing both sides by the Density: d v/ d =m/d, density will cancel on the left and our final equation is Volume=Mass/Density or v=m/d
Why is mass used instead of volume when calculating density?
Actually, BOTH are used. You can define density as mass divided by volume (or mass per unit volume).
