What happen to the density of a substance when you heat it?

Normally when you heat a substance its volume increases while mass stays the same. It may not be noticable but the density would decrease.


What would you use to measure density?

The density of a substance is the ratio of its mass to its volume. So, I would measure the mass and volume of a substance to calculate density.


What happen when an object whose density is equal to the density of water is dropped in water?

It would sink until it was completely covered with water and then neither go farther down nor up.


What would happen if a substance with a density of 0.95gml was placed in oil?

That would depend upon the density of the oil (which will depend upon temperature), how absorbant of oil the substance was and how deep the oil is. Assuming the substance does not absorb any of the oil then depending upon the oil various things would happen: In some oils such as Car oils, Coconut oil, Crude oil California, Linseed oil which all have a density less than 0.95 g/ml the substance would sink (unless the oil was not deep enough in which case the substance would sit on the bottom of the container and appear above the surface of the oil). In other oils such as Castor oil, Crude oil Mexican, Rosin oil which all have a density greater than 0.95g/ml the substance would float.


What would be the density of this substance in dag per mm3 the density of a substance is 4.5 gcm3?

0,00045 dag/mm3.


If you cut a peice of glass into 4 pieces what would happen to its density?

Nothing would happen to its density.


How would you calculate the density of a substance?

Density = Mass/Volume so you need to measure the mass of the substance and divide by the volume that it occupies.


What substances consist of density?

No substance 'consists' of density. Rather density is a property of matter or substance. It is the amount of matter of a substance in a certain volume of that substance. A combination of a unit of mass (eg. kilogram) and a volume (eg. a cubic metre) You would say that a substance has a density of so many kilograms in a cubic metre.


The density of water is equal to 1.0 gcm3. A substance with density equal to 2.1 gcm3 would in water.?

A substance with density equal to 2.1 gcm3 it's sinking in water.


If 1 liter of substance weighed 1 kilogram what would the substance be?

A substance with approximately the same density as water.


The density of water is equal to 1.0 gcm3 A substance with density equal to 1.3 gcm3 wouldin water?

A substance with a density of 1.3gcm-3 would sink in water. Float (APEX)


Will a given volume of a substance with high density be heavy or light?

Compared to a low density substance and all other things being equal, it would be heavier.
