Having a high density means that more atoms are packed into a smaller space. The most dense element in the Periodic Table is Lead.

Density can be calculated by dividing an object's mass by it's volume, as expressed by p = m/v.

What makes water have a high density?

Water is not having high density ........ it's having low density but althought vander wall forces are required to something dense............ like hydrogen bond , it's a vander wall force.


What does the word dense mean?

The "density" of something is a measure of how much it weighs (technically, it's mass) per amount of space it takes up (it's volume). The formula for density is Density = mass/volume. So something that is very heavy but doesn't take up much space is considered to have a high density (like lead), but something that is light and takes up a lot of space has a low density (like feathers). So the word "dense" usually refers to things that have a high density. It is also commonly used colloquially to refer to somebody who is maybe a bit slow to understand things (I think it is reference to their skull being dense, thus not allowing much in or out of their brains!). Density = Mass / Volume Plutonium is very dense. Styrofoam isn't. Water has a density of 0. Density is the consitration of matter in an object


Is a higher density mean a heavier object?

Not necessarily. Density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume. An object can have a high density but still be light if it is made of materials that are not very dense. Weight, on the other hand, is influenced by both density and volume.


What is the density of high pressure steam?

will density of water is equal to density of steam at high pressures and temperatures


Does Alcohol have a high density?

Well that depends, do you think 0.79 grams is high? Compared to water, which has a density of 1.0 grams.. so does alcohol have a high density compared to water? No. :P

What does japan has a very high population density mean?

Having a high population density means that there are more people living in a certain distance, for example Japan would have a higher population density if 1000 people lived in an area of 1 km squared. The higher the number, the higher the population density.

Does a substance having high optical density have to have a high physical density?

It's not necessary. If a compound has high optical density, it means that it absorbs more light at the given wavelength than some reference compound. There is no simple relation between density of matter and optical density. Even more I am pretty sure you can find a lot of compounds with lower densities (of matter) but having high optical density.
