Because density is a joint function of both volume (size) and mass.

How does size relate to density?

Density = Mass/Volume or mass/size.


How big is a mass?

The size of a mass depends on its density.


Why is the density of a substance independent of sample size?

Density is an intensive quantity which means it is independent of size. This can be seen from the definition of density. Density = mass/volume So if the sample size increases than so does the mass, but the density remains unchanged.


Why does the density of a substance not change with the sample size?

The density of a substance does not change with the sample size because density is an intrinsic property of the material, determined by its mass and volume. As you increase the sample size, both the mass and volume of the substance increase proportionally, resulting in no change in density. This relationship is described by the formula density = mass/volume, which remains constant regardless of the amount of the substance being measured.


What happens to the density of an object as you change its size?

As you change the size of an object, its density remains constant, assuming the mass stays the same. Density is a measure of how much mass is present in a given volume, so as the size changes, the mass and volume change proportionally, keeping the density the same.


You have density of 3 equal size balls if density of one ball is twice that of the other 2 what conclusion can you draw about its mass?

Density is mass divided by volume. If the density is greater and the volume is the same then the mass must also be greater for the same size balls.


Does changing the mass change the density?

No, changing the mass of an object does not affect its density. Density is a property of a material that remains constant regardless of the size or mass of the object. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.


Are mass and size and color and shape and density the physical properties of matter?

Yes, mass, size, color, shape, and density are all physical properties of matter. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, size refers to the dimensions of an object, color and shape are visual characteristics, and density is the ratio of mass to volume.


Does density depend on size?

Density of an object is defined as mass per volume (volume the mass occupies which is related to the size of the object). So if mass is considered constant then density is inversely proportional to the volume of the object. That is density is proportional to 1/volume.


How heavy an object is relative to its size the ratio of mass of volume?

The mass of an object is equal to the object's density multiplied by the volume (size) mass (kg) = density (kg/m3) x volume (m3)


Why does density remain the same regardless of sample size unlike mass or volume?

Density is an intensive property - not dependent on the mass.


If you have two objects that are the same size and one of them has a mass of 50 g and the other object has a mass of 10 g which object has the greatest density?

The object with the mass of 50g has the greatest density because density is mass divided by volume, and since volume is the same for both objects (since they are the same size), the object with the greater mass will have the greater density.
