It will increase the total volume, but it will hardly affect total mass. Remember the definition of density as mass / volume.

How would an air bubble clinging to the metal object affect the value for its density?

An air bubble clinging to a metal object would decrease the overall density of the object. The presence of the air bubble adds volume without contributing much mass, leading to a lower density calculation.


How does the density of the metal in the crushed can compare with the metal's density before the can was crushed?

It depends on what you're measuring: the density of the aluminum or the aluminum and the space inside the can. If it's the density of the aluminum only, it doesn't change much. If it's the density of the aluminum and the space inside the can, the density greatly decreases as you are getting rid of the air, and therefore the volume, inside. This also depends on if you are using your foot or a garbage compacter.


How does the density of the metal in the crushed can compare with the density of the metal before the can was crushed?

The density of the metal in the crushed can remains the same as the density of the metal before it was crushed. Density is an intrinsic property of a material that does not change with physical alterations like crushing. So, the density of the metal in the can will not change due to the crushing process.


What is the density of a metal if you cut it in half and the original density was 8.4?

If you cut a metal in half, each half will have the same density as the original metal, so the density of each half will still be 8.4. The density of a material does not change when you cut it into pieces.


How does the density of the metal in a crushed can compare to the density of the metal before the can was crushed?

The density of the metal in a crushed can remains the same as the density of the metal before the can was crushed. The mass of the metal remains constant; only its shape changes when the can is crushed.

If an air bubble was trapped in a metal rod would it affect the rod's density?

Yes, the overall density would be less than if the rod were pure metal.

Will air bubbles affect the volume when measuring the volume of a metal.?

Air bubbles would make the volume you read in the measuring cylinder increase from the actual volume of theliquid. so when you add in the metal, there would be an increase in the volume of the metal than it really is. the mass of the metal cannot be affected by air bubble because this is the amount of matter in the metal. This increase in volume causes the density of the metal to reduce from its original value. since mass is constant, density is inversely proportional to volume. As volume increases, density decreases.hope that was helpful.

How does the density of a metal in the crushed can compare with density of the metal before the can was crushed?

The density of the metal will remain the same. However because the volume of the object has been reduced the overall density will increase

How does changing the shape of the metal affect the density of the boat?

Indeed yes. Density is defined as mass per unit volume. If all the mass were concentrated in one lump, your boat would no longer float. If the metal walls of the boat were a little thinner, you'd have more boat volume, and lower density.
