Because density is an intensive property, it does not depend on the amount of material. Density is a ratio between mass and volume, D=M/V. That specific ratio is constant for any material. For example, the smallest sample of aluminum and the largest sample of aluminum have a density of 2.70 g/cm^3 at room temperature. Density does change with temperature because temperature affects volume. The density of all samples of aluminum at its melting point is 2.375 g/cm^3.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium
The density is the ratio between the mass and the volume of a sample.
to get density you take mass divided by volume
In a gas, for a given amount of matter, density absolutely depends on volume. For liquids and solids, they occupy given volumes, and it is necessary extraordinarily strong compressions to induce even a modest change in volume. However, solids and liquids are somewhat susceptible to temperature and density does depend slightly on it.
In order to calculate the density of a substance, you must know the volume and the weight of a sample. Then the density is calculated as Density = (Weight) divided by (Volume).
-- Get a piece of the material. It doesn't matter what size it is. -- Measure the mass of the sample. -- Measure the volume of the sample. -- Divide the mass by the volume. The result is the density of the material.
If the volume stay the same, i.e 256 cubic centimeters then the density will be 2.34g/cubic centremeter. However if the the volume changes because it is the same material then the density will be 1.17g/cubic centimeter as calculated by density= mass/volume
Its density. Density is mass per unit volume.
The idea is to divide the mass by the volume.
The formula for density is mass/volume, hence the density is 15/5=3g/cm3
Volume cannot be measured in grams per cubic centimetres, density can.
The same way you measure the density of any other material. Divide the mass of a sample by its volume.
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.
I have no clue. Sorry. :( ^^ Ignore that ^^ I think Density = mass/volume.
Density of a substance = (mass of a sample of it)/(volume of the same sample)
Based on the formula Desnity= Mass/Volume. The answer would be 13.5 g/cm3
Divide the number of grams by the density (the density of lead is about 11 grams/cubic centimeter - look it up if you need more precision). If the density is in grams/cubic centimeter, the answer is the volume in cubic centimeters.
