Density (notably for gases) is increased by adding matter to a fixed volume (gases) or by reducing the volume in which it is contained (increases pressure).
Solids and liquids are not actually compressible, but vary in density according to the molecular arrangement. Generally, the lower the temperature is, the lower the volume would be (volume is the amount of space an object takes up) because the atoms in an object will compact together when they have less energy. If the temperature is low, the volume will be low, and DENSITY INCREASES.
If a substance has weak bonds that connect its atoms together, the volume will be higher because atoms are more spread out when it is a weak bond.

If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
What happens to density when volume or mass is affected?
Density = Mass / Volume Therefore: Increase in Mass --> Increase in Density Increase in Volume --> Decrease in Density and Vice Versa.. :) Hope this helped
How does an increase or decrease in temperature affect density?
Usually, an increase in temperature will result in a decrease in density, and vice versa. (There are exceptions, but they are very rare.)The amount by which this happens is the coefficient of thermal expansion. If it doesn't happen (like for borosilicate glass, used for test tubes) the coefficient is zero. If it works backwards (higher density with higher temperature, like water between 32-40 degrees F), the coefficient is negative.
What happens to the density of air molecules as you increase in altitude?
the density decreases
If you increase density of liquid the effect on viscosity is?
The viscosity of the liquid will increase.
Can a increase in density result from an increase in mass and no change in volume?
Yes. Density is mass/volume so if mass increases so does density if volume does not change
What is a result to increasing the temperature of a gas?
In a closed system the pressure increase. In other conditions the volume increase and the density decrease.
What is the reduction in the density of a medium?
It is the result of a decrease in the pressure or an increase in the temperature of a medium.
What effects of increase does density do?
Density decrease when the temperature is raising.
What kind of density current is caused by muddy rapidly flowing mixture of sediment and water?
A turbidity current is a density current that occurs when mud or silt mixes with seawater. This is the result of the increase in the density of the water itself.
If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
What happens to density when volume or mass is affected?
Density = Mass / Volume Therefore: Increase in Mass --> Increase in Density Increase in Volume --> Decrease in Density and Vice Versa.. :) Hope this helped
What happens as a result of the sun evaporating water from an ocean or lake?
The density of water increase, also the humidity of the atmosphere; the temperature decrease.
Why does a evaporation increase the density of ocean water?
Evaporating water the concentration of salts increase and so the density increase.
Does evaporation of salt water cause it to increase or decrease density?
The density increase after evaporation.
Do evaporation of salt water cause density increase or decrease?
During evaporation the density increase.
Do evaporation of salt water cause density to increase or decrease?
The density of water increase after evaporation.
