How many cups equals a pound and a half?
About One cup is half a pound but everything has a different density, so you should u an electric scale to measure the weight. 1cup=half a pound 8ounces=1cup
The Time it takes for one half of the substance to decay into another substance?
half-life
If One kg of air is compressed from 1 m3 to 0.5 what happens to density?
Density is a measure of mass per unit of volume. Assuming no air leaks out while we compress it, the mass doesn't change. Since the volume is now half as much as before and the mass is the same, the density has doubled.
What is the time it takes for half of a raioactive substance to decay?
Half life
If any metal is cut in half will the density remain the same?
Each metal has a unique, characteristic density. Aluminum metal is of much lower density than iron, for example--something that you can readily observe if you have equal-volume solid blocks of each metal. The iron will be obviously more massive. Density of any metal varies a small amount with temperature--increasing as temperature increases, so for complete accuracy assume the above applies to solid samples of metal at the same temperature.

What happens to the density a chocolate bar when you cut in half?
The density of the chocolate bar will remain the same, even if the bar is cut in half, or any other fraction. Only if the chocolate was to be melted, will the density change from a solid to a liquid.
When a solid block of materials is cut in half what happens to the density?
The density does not change, as density is the amount of material in a given amount of space. But each piece has the same amount of space and material relative to each other.
By how much does the density of air increase when it is compressed to half its volume?
Density is inversely proportional to volume. If volume changes to half, density doubles. The substance doesn't matter.
What happens to the density of a object if you cut it in half?
The density stays the same. The reason why is because the density of something is mass divided by volume, so if you cut the object in half, it will not change at all. :) ((and yes the other answer was gibberish lol.))
What happens to the density of an object when you break it in half?
Assuming the object is the same straight through - nothing.
When a balloon is heated its volume is doubled what happens to its density?
The density decreases by half. You find the answer by knowing that density is equal to mass divided by the volume. If the mass stays constants and the volume is doubled, then the density is halved.

When a helium balloon rises in the air it expands If the volume of the balloon doubles what happens to the density of the helium inside it?
The density is reduced to 50% (half) of its original value.
How is density a size-independent property?
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.

What will happen to the mass volume and density if you chop the wooden block in half?
The volume will be reduced to a half of its original value. If the mass is (approximately) evenly distributed throughout the wooden block then the mass will also reduce to a half of its original value and the density will not change.
