Is the size of a salt crystal a phystical or chemical property?
I believe its a physical property.
What is the effect of shape on the density of samples of the same material?
it has no effect. density of a substance is the same no matter the size or shape of the sample.
What happens to the density of a mineral if it's broken into two pieces?
density units are kg per cubic meter. if you reduce the weight, and reduce the size they cancel out, and the density is the same.
Is the design of a grease separator used by chefs based on the property of weight?
No, it is density...Thats what I was told :P
What will stop a glacier from moving downhill?
There needs to be matter greater in size and density to stop it/
Why density is a size-independent property.?
ensity a size dependent shape
How is density a size-independent property?
Purely from a definitional sense, density is size independent because it depends on the substance in question, not how much of it you have. From a mathematical sense, density is mass/volume. If the mass is equally distributed throughout the volume, then half of the volume, for example would have half the mass, preserving the same value of density.
Why is an object's mass a size dependent property while its density is a size independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
Is density size dependent or size independent?
size independent
Is density a characteristic property?
Yes, the density is a characteristic property. Density is a physical property, an intensive property, independent on the amount of material.
Why is an object's mass a size-dependent physical property while its density is a size-independent physical property?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
Explain why density is a size independent property how does it differ from a size dependent property?
Size independent property is physical properties that do not change when an object changes. Size dependent is physical properties that change when the size of an object changes.
How do you find the density of large objects that cannot be displaced?
density is an intensive property of material independent of its size. So if it cant be displaced take a part of that.
Is humidity an extensive property?
Humidity is an intensive physical property, since it is independent of the size of the system and of the amount of material within the system. Other examples are: temperature and 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 is an objects mass a size dependent physical property while its density is a size independent physical properties?
Size is the defining factor of volume, and the greater the volume for a given density, the greater the mass. Density can be changed by changing the volume but will always depend on the chemical makeup of the substance.
Explain why density is a size independent property?
Units of density are mass per unit volume. Unit volume might be a cubic centimeter or a cubic foot, for example. Whatever the size of your sample, a cubic foot of it is always a cubic foot, and the mass of that cubic foot will always be the same.
