Density is entirely unrelated to an object's size. It is a property of a given material. For example, iron has a certain density, which remains the same for any iron object, from a tiny particle of iron filing, to a huge I beam. Density is simply weight divided by volume. So yes, two objects of the same size can have very different density.

What are the quantities of density?
Density is measured in units of mass divided by volume. The SI unit is kilograms/meter3.
What physical property of matter tells how concentrated matter is?
Density is a physical property that is often correlated with chemical composition. For example, most metals are denser than any non metal elements, and most hydrocarbons are less dense than water.
Can you weigh density?
No. Density is a ratio; it is mass divided by volume. Anything that you can weigh has a non-zero density, but the weight of the thing is related to its mass and the gravity where it is being measured. You could have two objects of vastly different density, but the weight of the objects could be the same.
An object's density is equal to its mass divided by its what?
Density is mass divided by volume
How can a small object be densest if it doesn't have the most mass?
Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.Density is not the same as mass. Density is mass divided by volume.
What is mass divided by unit volume called?
This is the density. ---------------------------------------- Density is an important physical and specific property of materials. Density is an intensive property irrespective on the form and dimension of the sample.
What physical properties are used to calculate the density of an object?
Mass and Volume are physical properties that can bed measured. By themselves, neither can bed used to identify unknown objects or substances. However, if you have measured the mass and the volume of an object, you can calculate its density.
Which classification of property does not affect density?
Density is mass divided by volume. Density is an intensive property which means that increasing the amount of the substance does not increase its density.
What are the quantities of density?
Density is measured in units of mass divided by volume. The SI unit is kilograms/meter3.
What is measured to tell how dense something is?
Mass divided by volume equals density
What is the mineral property defied by Density of the mineral sample divided by the density of water?
Specific gravity.
What is the mass units for density?
Density is measured in units of mass divided by units of volume. The SI unit is kilograms/meter3.
What is a specific property of matter related to its mass divided by its volume?
The answer is Density.
What is a specific property matter related to its mass divided by its volume?
density
Formula for density?
Mass divided by volume. In SI units, density can be measured in kilograms per cubic meter , or grams per cubic centimeter.
What physical property does volume divided by distance give you?
Mass divided by volume is the formula for density. Density is expressed as mass per unit of volume.
Mass of an object divided by volume?
Density is mass divided by volume.
