Sure. That just means you're holding a large piece of it.
A king-size mattress has a small density.
So does the Goodyear blimp, even when the bag is full of air.
Or a hot-air balloon when it's empty and on the ground.
How about an iceberg. It's less dense than water, which is why it floats.
What else can I help you with?
When an object is heavier does that mean the object is more dense than other objects?
Not necessarily. The weight of an object is determined by its mass and the force of gravity acting on it, while density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume. An object can be heavy without being dense if it has a large volume.
Why is a dense object heavy?
In a way that's what dense means. If something is dense then a small volume of it will have lots of mass. Something that has lots of mass will be subject to considerable gravitational force, which is weight.
Does an object that's dense heavy for its mass or density?
An object that is dense has a large amount of matter within a given volume, regardless of its mass. Density is a measure of how tightly packed the matter is in an object, not the overall weight. So, an object can be dense but not necessarily heavy for its size.
Do objects that have heavy weights always have a large volume?
Not necessarily. An object's weight is determined by its mass and the strength of the gravitational force acting on it, while its volume is a measure of the amount of space it occupies. An object can be dense and have a small volume while still having a heavy weight, like a small but very heavy metal ball.
What does it mean for something to be really dense?
When something is really dense, it means that it has a high concentration of particles within a given volume. This often results in the object being heavy for its size. Materials like lead or gold are examples of dense substances.
What is dense in science?
heavy, has larger atoms.It means that when something is to heavy on another object it's dense

When an object floats does it means it is heavy or light?
No. It means its less dense than water.

What are the characteristics of the core of earth's interior?
The core is extremely dense, heavy and very hot.
Is lead buoyant?
No, lead is not buoyant. It is incredibly dense, which makes it very heavy, and not able to float.
What can density determine?
An object's density is the ratio of its mass to its volume. A very dense object has tightly packed, or compact, matter.
Is rosewood a hardwood?
Hard! Also, it's a very dense and quite heavy wood.
Does sound travelling through a very dense object cause time to slow down for it?
Sound travels faster through dense objects.
