Density means how close the particles are. You can determine
that by doing an experiment. Try it!

What has a larger mass silver or gold?
gold is larger because of its density
Asked in Science, Units of Measure
If two objects have the same volume but different mass which has a greater density?
The one with the larger mass will have the larger density which
means it is more dense.
Asked in Science
How does an objects volume affect buoyancy?
If the mass stays the same, then when an object gets larger, its
density decreases. The larger density=the more bouyancy
Asked in Human Anatomy and Physiology
What is the ratio between eye size and head size?
Larger animals have smaller eyes relative to their heads.
Likewise, smaller animals have larger eyes relative to their
heads.
Asked in Physics, Chemistry
What happens to the density of a material if the volume is decreased?
The density becomes larger because the Mass (in the equation D=
M/V) is being divided by a smaller number, which causes the Density
to turn out larger.
The density of a substance is not affected by a change in volume.
Asked in Physics
Will density increase or decrease if large object splashed out water?
density will decreas.becuse is greater than larger
Asked in Animal Life
Why do larger animals have thicker legs relative to their body size?
Larger animals have thicker legs relative to their body size
because the ability of bone to support weight is not directly
proportional to body mass.
Asked in Chemistry
If mass increases volume stays the same then density?
If the mass increases the volume will acctually be 10% larger
then the density and mass. ( mass + density and then 10% of that is
the volume.
Asked in Science
When density decrease it gets smaller or larger?
Density is mass divided by volume. Assuming the mass doesn't
change, if the density decreases, then the volume must
increase.
Asked in Earth Sciences
What happens when the larger ball collides with smaller ball?
Depends on their relative masses.
Asked in Chemistry
Which occupies a larger volume100g lead density 11.34gml or 100g water density 0.995gml?
water will occupy more volume
Asked in Chemistry
What happens to density of air when heated?
Density will decrease. When a quantity of air is heated, it
expands giving it a larger volume. It will still have the same
mass, so the density will be lower.
Asked in Physics
How does the density of a material change when the material expands?
Look at the definition of density, as mass / volume. If the
volume increases, you are dividing by a larger number, so the
density gets smaller.
Asked in Density
Why density of ice is less than water density?
Water has an unusual property that it expands as it freezes.
This is due to the crystalline formation in conjunction with its
hydrogen bonding. Since it expands, volume is larger. Density =
mass / volume. Dividing by a larger number gives a smaller answer
for the density. Water is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius.

How could an electron configuration be used to predict relative atomic size?
the larger the highest energy level number, the larger the
atomic radius
Asked in Scotland, England
Why does England have a bigger density than Scotland?
A lot of Scotland is rural and mountainous, so there are large
areas where is a low density of population. England is larger and
has a much larger population, with more areas that are easily
habitable.
Asked in United Kingdom, Population
Why does the United Kingdom have a larger population density than Russia?
Simple - Russia has more land in relation to the UK. Russia's
population is spread over a larger area - therefore their
population density is much less.
Asked in Math and Arithmetic, Chemistry
Why is density used to identify substances instead of mass or 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.
Asked in Weight and Mass
Is 1.4 kilogram larger than 1.25 kilogram?
It's more mass. It may or may not be physically larger,
depending on the density.
Asked in Units of Measure, Physics
Which has a larger mass a liter of water or a liter of mercury?
A liter of mercury has a larger mass as its density its much
higher than water
Asked in Units of Measure, Chemistry, Weight and Mass, Metal and Alloys
Which has larger volume 1 pound of steel or 1 pound of lead?
the lead has a smaller volume because it has a much larger
density (mass per volume) steel is about 80-95% iron. density of
iron is 7.8 g/cm3 density of lead is 11.35 g/cm3
Asked in Skeletal System
Do fatter people have larger skulls?
No. The size of a person's skull varies a bit from person to
person, somewhat relative to overall height, but not relative to
their weight specifically.
