Water is considered incompressible, so you can't change its volume.
Only way to get a lesser volume of water is to use less of it. And if you use less, but in a smaller volume, the density stays the same.
Only times water changes density is when you change its state, into steam or ice, or if you add other chemicals to it. But then it's not pure water in a liqued state any more.
Density stays constant no matter what the volume is. Density is measured in units of mass per unit of volume. If the volume increases, so does the mass and the density stays the same.
example: The density of a liquid is 2grams/liter
So if there is one liter, obviously, there are 2 grams of the substance. Now lets change the volume to 5 liters. Now there are 10 grams of the substance. The new density is:
10 grams/ 5 liters which reduces to 2grams/liter. So the density doesn't change regardless of the volume.
Note: this assumes that pressure stays constant at both volumes, which may not be true for very large volumes.

What happens to the mass when water freezes?
No, as long as it is the same peice of ice. The volume and the density change but not the mass
Does changing the volume of water chang the density?
Density = mass / volume. So if the volume changes, the density will obviously also change.
If you add water to sand does the volume density and mass change?
Yes because the sand adds more mass to the mass of the water, therefore the density and volume also change
If you had a bathtub full of water would the density of all of the fluid in the tub be the same as only 1 gram of the liquid?
The density of water does not change with volume of water but it can change when the temperature is close to a phase change ie 100 oC or 0 oC. Density = mass / volume Density of water = 1.0 g /cm3
What properties change when water freezes to ice?
Its volume increases and its density decreases.
Does the volume of water change the density of water?
Density = mass / volume. So if the volume changes, the density will obviously also change.
What happens to the mass when water freezes?
No, as long as it is the same peice of ice. The volume and the density change but not the mass
Does changing the volume of water chang the density?
Density = mass / volume. So if the volume changes, the density will obviously also change.
What are factors that can change the density of water?
mass and volume
What is the meaning of water density?
Density is mass per unit volume of a substance. The Mass and volume of water is in the ratio of 1:1 .There fore the density of water is 1. With rise and decrease of temperature the volume increases or decreases to change the water density.
What is the density of 300 milliliters of water with 108 milliliters of water?
The density of water does not change when the volume changes. This is because density is a proportion of weight to volume. The density of water changes with temperature, but is approximately 1g/ml.
Is the density of 8ml of water the same as the density of 4ml of water?
yes. the density of a element will not change only the mass and volume will.
If you add water to sand does the volume density and mass change?
Yes because the sand adds more mass to the mass of the water, therefore the density and volume also change
What are the two factors that can change the density of water?
Mass and volume.
How does the density of water change when it moves from a liquid to a gas?
First of all, the density of water decreases when it gets in gas state. Density is depended on mass and volume and thus the formula density= mass/volume. When water gets into gas state, the volume increases which results in an decrease in density.
How does dissolving salt in water change the density of the water?
The density increases as the mass of the solution increases but its volume remains the same.
Does the amount of water effect its density?
The only way to change the mass of water would be to either add more of it (which wouldn't change it's density - density is an intensive property, not extensive) or to change the isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in the water - thus getting "heavy water" such as is present as an intermediate materiel in the refining of tritium and as a moderator in some nuclear reactors.
