What does density vary between solid liquid or gas?
as density is equal to mass per unit volume. for any substance, volume does not remain same in its three(solid, liquid and gas) state. so density vary when volume changes for different states of a substance
Well every solid with the same dimensions have the same density?
No. There are many, many different kinds of solid, and they come in a variety of densities. Something like a brick is fairly heavy, but if it was made of wood, it would be a lot lighter and a lot less dense. There are a zillion other examples that could be cited.
Does the same volume of all dry substances weigh the same?
No. The weight of a given volume of a solid is dependent on its DENSITY (weight per volume). The value provided may be its absolute density (at a given temperature) or its specific gravity(density compared to another substance, usually water).
If two objects are the same size will they have the same mass?
No, they will not, unless they are the same material. Every material has a different density, and mass = density x volume
When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid its density normally decreases. What is happening to the substance's mass and volume to cause this decrease in density?
A decrease in density would indicate a reduction in mass relative to the volume. If the mass decreases but the volume remains the same or increases, then the density would decrease.
Is the density of gaseous substance likely to be larger or smaller then the density of liquid or solid substance at the same temperature and why?
Temperature in this instance will not affect density, but rather pressure. The density of the gas will be much smaller than the density of a liquid or solid of the same chemical because it is a gas. The formula for density is mass over volume, and a gas has no measurable mass, making the gas always less dense than the liquid and the solid.
Does a solid have the greatest density?
For a given material, while the material itself has the same density, a solid OBJECT of EQUAL VOLUME has greater density than if light weighted. For example a one inch diameter solid ball has greater density than a one inch diameter hollow ball.
Why do two samples with the same substance with the same volume HAVE to have the same mass?
Because they are of the same substance they have the same density density = mass/volume
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
If A sponge and a brick that are the same size they have the same what?
no; they have the same volume but their mass is quite different; density is mass/volume and the sponge has much lower density
Do solids all have the same volume?
For gas and liquid, it took shape of what ever contain them. For solid, it took original shape of what ever contain them before freezing to solid or mold them to solid. The later shape of solid is due to what it suffer over time to shape it to existing shape.
What is the difference between the methods of finding density of liquid than finding the density of solid?
A solid has air gaps. Density is mass per volume. Volume of the known mass of solid is determined by displacement of liquid in which the solid is insoluble. In case of liquid, the mass of known volume of liquid is determined.
