The larger piece will probably have more mass than the smaller one. But if the wood is of the same type and "all things are equal" as regards moisture content, sap content, etc., the density of both pieces of wood will be the same.

Density does not depend on the size of a sample. Density is mass per unit of volume. If a large gold nugget and a small gold nugget are compared, the larger nugget will have more mass, but both nuggets will have the same density.

Which has the greatest density a small piece of aluminum or a large piece of aluminum?

The small piece of aluminum will have greater density than the large piece of aluminum. Density is mass divided by volume, so for the same material, a smaller piece will have more mass per unit volume compared to a larger piece.


The density of a small piece of matter and a large piece of matter of the same matter are?

The density of the small piece of matter and the large piece of matter is the same because density is a characteristic property of a material and is independent of the amount or size of the material. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume, so as long as the material is the same, the density will remain constant.


How the density of a large piece of aluminum compare to a small piece?

The same.


What are the same densities of a small piece and a large piece of matter?

The density of a small piece of matter and a large piece of matter would be the same if they are made of the same material. Density is a physical property that remains constant regardless of the size or shape of the object, as long as the material composition is consistent.


Explain the relatoinship between th density of a mineral and its size?

A mineral's density increases as its mass per unit volume increases. If a mineral has a small mass and large unit volume, its density is smaller. Whereas, if a mineral has a large mass and a small unit volume, its density is greater.


What are the same densities of a small piece and large piece of matter?

Density refers to the mass of a material in a given volume (same volume for all materials)


How does the density of a large piece od aluminum compare to a small piece?

becasue the alluminum is denser than the copper.


Can a small object have more density than a large object?

Yes, a small object can have more density than a large object if the small object has more mass compared to its volume. Density is calculated as mass per unit volume, so an object with greater mass and smaller volume will have higher density.


Which has the greatest density an iceberg a gallon of water an aluminum can or a small piece of lead?

A small piece of lead has the greatest density among the options listed. Lead has a high density compared to water, icebergs, and aluminum.


When a substance has a large density a mass fits into a volume?

"large density" ===> (relatively large mass) fits into (relatively small volume)


What has a small capacity and large mass?

An object with a high density, such as a lead ball, can have a small capacity (volume) but a large mass. This is because density is the ratio of an object's mass to its volume, so objects with high density have a lot of mass packed into a small space.


What has greater volume a cone or frustum?

A large cone has a greater volume than a small frustum while a small cone has a smaller volume than a large frustum
