If two objects have the same mass but different volumes which will be more dense?

The one with the larger mass will have the larger density which means it is more dense.

Volumes can be changed quite easily, simply by applying or reducing pressure.
Wiki User

Wiki User
∙ 6y agoBecause the densities are different.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoYes.
The heavier one.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoyes, it is all to do with density
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe one with the smaller volume.

Why are some objects more dense than other objects?
Some objects are more dense than others due either to the mass of the particles in the material, the atomic number or how closely the particles are packed together. For example, lead, has a high density because its particles have a very high mass. But a material like polystyrene, doesn't have a high density as the particles are spaced far apart and they have a low mass value.
What would cause objects that have the same mass to have different amounts of inertia?
Different velocities is what causes objects to have the same mass and different amounts of inertia. This can be written in a formula.
If you have two equally sized objects how could you tell which one is more dense?
Compare their weights on scale's have to select scales depending on the size of the objects to find a objects density divide the objects mass by its volume.
How does gravity pull objects through different states of matter?
All the objects have mass and
In a presentation about measuring Mass one of your classmates states Two objects of the same size will always have the same mass. and Is this statement correct Why or why not?
Different objects contain different amounts of matter, even if they are the same size. Therefore, two objects of the same size can have different masses.
What effect does the shape of an object have upon its density?
when you are comparing 3 objects of the same volume but different masses, which ever one is the heaviest, is the most dense and the lightest is the least dense. This is because Denisty= Mass ÷ Volume and when the volumes are the same, you just need to compare the masses.
Do objects of the same size and shape have the same mass?
No, not unless they are made of the same substance. Different substances have different densities, which means that the same volumes will have different masses.
What is the volume of 5.00 grams?
This question cannot be answered. Remember what grams refers to: mass. Because different objects have different masses, their volumes at a constant mass will be different. For example, 5.00 grams of hydrogen gas will expand to about 4 liters. But if you have 5.00 grams of paperclips, you will only have about 5 paperclips. Both the hydrogen gas and the paperclips have a mass of 5.00 grams, but their volumes are different.
If 1 object has a mass of 1487 and another object has a mass of 878 which one has the greater density?
Density=mass/volume. Unanswerable without knowing the volumes (or enough information to find their volumes) of the objects.
Why do objects have different mass?
Objects have different mass because they not weighted the same..
If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have?
If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have different densities.
How Mass and volume can affect the density of the volume?
The definition of density is mass per unit volume. For any object or sample of a substance, it can be calculated as (mass) divided by (volume). If two objects or samples with the same volume have different masses, the one with the greater mass has greater density. If two objects or samples with the same mass have different volumes, the one with the greater volume has smaller density.
How can you predict whether objects will float or sink?
The density of water is 1 g/cm cubed, and objects more dense that water will sink, while objects less dense than water will float. An object will sink if it weighs more than the water it pushes away, and an object will float if it weighs less than the water it pushes away. The Greek mathematician Archimedes discovered that the amount of water displaced by an object depends on the mass of that object. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, and dense objects have more mass than less dense objects. Dense objects that do not displace much water will sink, while less dense objects that displace a lot of water will float.

How can you predict if something will sink or float?
An object will sink if it weighs more than the water it pushes away, and an object will float if it weighs less than the water it pushes away. The Greek mathematician Archimedes discovered that the amount of water displaced by an object depends on the mass of that object. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, and dense objects have more mass than less dense objects. Dense objects that do not displace much water will sink, while less dense objects that displace a lot of water will float.
What is more dence 12 or 7 cm3?
12 cm3 of Mercury is more dense than 7 cm3 of Hydrogen (at the same Temperature and Pressure), so 12 cm3 is more dense than 7 cm3.Whereas 12 cm3 of Hydrogen is less dense than 7 cm3 of Mercury (at the same temperature and pressure), so 7 cm3 is more dense than 12 cm3!Density depends upon the mass of the substance contained in the volume, so given two volumes, no statement can be made about the relative densities of those volumes without any knowledge of the mass of the volumes: density = mass/volume.Knowing the densities of the substances of the volumes, the volume is immaterial as the density is the same - density is the mass per unit volume.
