3.3 The concept of density
1. The density of a substance is defined as the of mass contained in the substance for a unit ... 2. We can easily find the density of a substance if we know the . and the of the substance. 3. The of substance depends on: A. MASS : The bigger its mass, the . its density is B. VOLUME : The bigger its volume, the its density is. 4. Density (g/cm3) = Mass (g) / Volume (cm3) 5. D = M/V 6. M = DV 7. V = M/D 8. Unit of density is kg/m or g/cm. 9. substances have different densities. 10. The density of a substance increases if mass .. volume
Example : Osmium is a very dense metal. If a piece of osmium has a mass
of 50g and a volume of 2.22cm3, what is its density?
Table show the density for different type of matter
Why do some objects and liquids float? 1. A substance is able to or .in a liquid depending on its . 2. A . substance floats in a denser liquid whereas a denser substance in a dense liquid. Example : Ice floats in water because it is less dense than water. A gold sinks in mercury because it is denser than mercury. How to compare the densities of objects? An substance which is .. dense will float in a denser liquid. An denser substance will .in a liquid which is less dense.
