Is density a extensive property of a substance?
Density is an intrinsic property, not an extensive property of matter. This is because it DOES NOT depend on the size of the sample (amount). The density of a small piece of matter is the same as the density of a larger piece of that same matter.
What is the density of a mineral sample?
60g/kg
Why does the density of a substance not change with the sample size?
Density = mass / volume As sample size increases, both mass and volume increase in the same ratio.
Why does density happen?
Density doesn't happen. It's simply a derived metric, a math term. But in general, density is a measure of quantity per unit basis. Here are some examples: Q/U = kilograms of mass/volume in meters^3 = mass density Q/U = number of people/area containing them km^2 = population density Q/U = number of electrons in a wire/length of the wire meter = electron linear density NOTE: The unit bases were volume, area, and length. My point is that density can be specified by any one of those three bases.
What is an example for an intensive property?
Intensive properties are those properties that are independent of mass or size. Examples would be temperature, density, etc. Regardless of how much you have, the density is the same, and the temperature is the same.
What effect does the amount of the sample of a substance affect its density?
it has no effect. density of a substance is the same no matter the size or shape of the sample.
To calculate the amount of heat absorbed as a substance melts what information is not needed?
the density of the sample.
What is the mass of a sample divided by its volume?
Its density. Density is mass per unit volume.
What is the Mass of an object divided by amount of substance?
(Mass) divided by (Volume) is defined as the density of the sample or object.
What is the eqyaion for density?
Density of a substance = (mass of a sample of it)/(volume of the same sample)
Why mass is an example of extrinsic property?
Mass is an example of an extrinsic property, because an extrinsic property is one that varies with and depends on the size and amount of the sample. Obviously, the more of the sample you have, the greater will be the mass. Thus, mass is an extrinsic property. Compare this to density. It doesn't matter how much of the sample you have, the density will be the same. Density is an intrinsic property.
Does density depend on how much sample you use?
Density is independent of the amount of material in a sample. A sample of a homogeneous substance used to find the density can have any volume. If a cm3 of the substance weighs 8.1 grams, then 10 cm3 will weigh 81.0 grams.We might consider water in a glass or bottle as an example. A small sample will have a given weight (mass) because water has a given density. Ten times that sample volume will have ten times the mass of that volume of water. The density of water does not change if we examine water in a small glass and another sample of the same water in a gallon jug.
What is volume mass and length and density?
Density is the amount of mass per unit of volume. Density = mass/volume Mass is the amount of matter in a sample. Length is the longest extent of anything as measured end to end. Volume is the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by a solid, liquid, or gas.
In determining the density of an unknown solid it was immersed in water if a portion of the sample sticks out the water how will this effect the calculation of the density?
this will cause the density to be lower than it actually is because it does not displace the full amount of water it should
What would happen to the sampling distribution of the mean if you increased the sample size from 5 to 25?
The variance of the estimate for the mean would be reduced.
How does density depend on the amount of material?
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
What is the density of a sample that has mass of 77.0 g and a volume of 36 mL?
The density of the sample is about 2.14 g/mL
