In a gas, for a given amount of matter, density absolutely depends on volume. For liquids and solids, they occupy given volumes, and it is necessary extraordinarily strong compressions to induce even a modest change in volume. However, solids and liquids are somewhat susceptible to temperature and density does depend slightly on it.

What does density not depend on?

I'm afraid the list of things that "density does not depend on" is very large indeed. You would be better advised to simply consider the factors that density does depend on. These are mass and volume.In other words, density does not depend on anything that is not directly related to either mass or volume.


What happens to the density of a material when you change the size of that material?

Changing the size of a material does not affect its density. Density is a characteristic property of a material that remains the same regardless of its size or shape. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of a material by its volume.


Does density depens on size or shape?

Density depends on both the size and shape of an object. The density is defined as mass per unit volume, so changing the size or shape of an object can alter its density. However, the material composition remains the most significant factor influencing density.


What is the density of a big object vs the smaller object of the same material?

The density of both objects will be the same regardless of their size if they are made of the same material. Density is a physical property of a material that remains constant regardless of the object's size or shape.


How do you think cutting up a material will affect its density?

Cutting up a material will not affect its density because density is a characteristic property of a material that remains constant regardless of its physical shape or size. Density is defined as the mass of a material per unit volume, so cutting it into smaller pieces will not change the mass or volume of the material overall.

What is the density of a rectangle?

A rectangle is just a geometric shape; it doesn't have a "density".A material shaped like a rectangle can have a density; in this case, the density will depend on what material you are using.

How does shape differ density?

If you use a homogenous (uniform) material, it doesn't. No matter what shape you put it into, the density should be the same.If you use a homogenous (uniform) material, it doesn't.

Does the pressure of a liquid depend on its density?

Density is an intrinsic property, and as such it does not depend on the size of the object. A drop of water will have a density of 1g/ml whether it is a big drop, or a very small drop.

What is the effect of shape on the density of samples of the same material?

it has no effect. density of a substance is the same no matter the size or shape of the sample.


How do the characteristics of color size shape temperature and pressure affect the density of a material?

The characteristics of color, size, shape, temperature, and pressure can influence the density of a material. For example, temperature affects density as substances typically expand when heated, decreasing their density, while cooling generally increases density. Pressure can also increase density, particularly in gases, as compressing a material decreases its volume without changing its mass. However, color, size, and shape do not directly affect density but can indicate material properties or influence how density is measured in specific contexts.

How can you find the density of a solid with a regular shape?

There is insufficient information for us to answer this question. Density = Mass / Volume. For a regular shape, the volume can be determined from a formula - which will depend on the shape. However, you still require the mass for which there is no information.


What is the Mass of asteroid 400 meters across?

That will depend on the exact shape, and the material it is made of.You can get an estimate, by assuming a spherical shape, calculating the volume, and multiplying that by some density (for example, the density of water). The actual mass may be a bit more than that if its a rocky asteroid; a bit less if it's ice, for instance.
