Density= Mass/Volume
If we insert arbitrary figures ...
Block 1 Volume 40 cubic cms [arbitrary]
Block 1 Mass is less than Block 2 so 39 gms
Block 2 Volume is less than Block 1 so 39 cubic cms
Block 2 Mass 40 gms [arbitrary]
D1 = 39/40 = 0.975 grams/cubic cm
D2 = 40/39 = 1.0256 grams/cubic cm
It's clear therefore than inserting extra matter [mass] into the same volume or a lesser volume results in a higher density.
The same holds true where mass remains constant and volume is altered. Greater volume = Less Density and vice versa.
(most dense to least dense) gold, mercury, water, oxygen
This is not a sensible question. There are many types of wood, and many types of metal. It depends which ones you pick. Balsa wood has a very low density, lignum vitae is much higher. Most woods are less dense than water (so they float) but a few are denser. Most metals are more dense than water, but a few, such as sodium and potassium are less dense. Overall, I suppose most metals are denser than most woods, but potassium is less dense than some forms of eucalyptus wood.
Because centimeters cubed is a unit of volume, not weight. The two might take up the same amount of space, but iron is much more dense and as such weighs more.
That depends on the type of wood. Most woods, e.g. aspen (0.42 kg/metre cubed) would be more dense than bamboo (about 0.35 kg/metre cubed), but balsa wood has very low density, (0.16 kg/metre cubed).
Yes, it would.
No pine is more dense then cedar.
It depends what kind of wood but mostly gold would weigh more.
It depends on the kind of wood. Water is more dense than most wood, but there are some kinds of wood (typically called ironwood) that are more dense than water.
If you think to density gold is more dense.
more
Gold is heavier than wood because of its higher density. Gold has a much higher atomic weight and tighter packing of atoms compared to wood, which is made of cellulose fibers that are much less dense. This difference in density is what makes gold heavier than wood.
it is more dense
The more dense its one kilogram of silver and the more better in durability and color it's solid white gold!
Gold is denser than water, as it has a higher density. Wood is less dense than water, as it typically floats on water.
Yes, gold is more dense than silver. Gold has a density of 19.32 g/cm3 while silver has a density of 10.49 g/cm3.
yes, gold is the heaviest common element
It depends on the density of the wood. If the wood is less dense than water, the cube will float. If the wood is more dense than water, the cube will sink.
