Density is based off mass and volume, not weight and volume. Weight is a measurement of gravity, and changes based on strong the pull of gravity is in the area. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, and does not change based on the pull of gravity. Density is Mass/Volume. Volume is a measure of how much space an object occupies. The more condensed matter is, the higher its density.
No, the mass density of an object would not be the same on the moon as on Earth. The mass of the object would remain the same, but since the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than that on Earth, the volume of the object would decrease on the moon, resulting in a different mass density calculation compared to Earth.
no it is about 1/6 the density of the earth
yes
All places have the same moon phase because the moon takes 27 days to revolve around the Earth and the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate. The speed of rotation is faster than the moon's revolution making the moon appear unmoving and all parts of Earth having the same moon phase.
It never does because the same face of the moon is always pointed at Earth. This is due to the fact that the moon revolves around Earth at the same speed it rotates on it's axis, so Earth remains in the same relative location in the sky on the moon.
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.

No; the Earth has over eighty times the mass of the Moon. Our Moon is overall about three fifths the density of the Earth; which is itself a scientific curiosity since this would mean the lunar core has an unusually low density.
Because it is about the same density, and is much larger than the moon.
yes
You are correct! This is the reason why many scientists believe that the moon was once long ago part of the earth, that an asteroid possibly dislodged, or the roation of the earth spun off a piece of the planet.
No density stays the same if you go to the moon.
Yes, a pound of cotton and a pound of lead have the same density because density is a property of a material that is independent of its weight. Density is defined as mass per unit volume, so if both the cotton and lead weigh the same, they should have the same density.
If the Moon was 10 percent of the Earth's diameter and at the same distance with the same density it would have a different orbital speed, would look smaller and affect the ocean tides less.If it were 10% of Earth's diameter and have the same mass as the present Moon, it would just look smaller and not be able to cause eclipses of the Sun.
no the earth is bigger than the moon
