Density
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its volume, while the measure of the quantity of matter in the body is its mass. Mass is a scalar quantity and is usually expressed in units like grams or kilograms, while volume is the amount of space an object occupies and is typically measured in cubic units.
The amount of mass in a given volume is called density. It is usually expressed as mass per unit volume (e.g., grams per cubic centimeter).
The answer is the VOLUME
Density is a quantitative property that describes the amount of matter within a given amount of space. It is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while volume is the amount of space that an object occupies. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.
No, mass is not the amount of matter in a given space. It is actually density.
The amount of matter is given space is mass.
"density"
Mass.
Since "amount of matter" is measured as an object's mass and "a given space" is measured as volume, the amount of matter in an a given space should equal mass/volume. Mass divided by volume is an object's density. Acceptable units of density include: grams/liters, kilograms/cubic meters, slugs/cubic inch, slugs/cubic foot, and many others.
The amount of matter in a given volume of space is its D-E-N-S-I-T-Y Its Density NOT Volume!
mass
Not exactly. Density is the amount of mass per unit volume. In other words, mass divided by volume.
They are related, sort of. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter - density is a measurement of the amount of matter in a given amount of space.
That's the "volume".
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its volume, while the measure of the quantity of matter in the body is its mass. Mass is a scalar quantity and is usually expressed in units like grams or kilograms, while volume is the amount of space an object occupies and is typically measured in cubic units.
Density is a measure of how much mass is present in a given volume. It is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. Objects with higher density have more mass in a smaller amount of space.
