If the pressure remains the same, the volume will increase.

Additional answer

Not always. Solids don't change in volume very much, and in fact water contracts when you heat it from 0 degrees to 4 degrees centigrade.

No. An increase in volume decreases its density. This will occur when a substance is heated.

Density is directly proportional to Mass. When mass in increased, density also increases.

i.e.Density = Mass/Volume

What happens to volume if density increases?

Density = mass / volume. Therefore, if volume increases and mass doesn't change, density will obviously decrease.


If density increases and mass stays the same then what happens to the volume?

the density increases


What happens the mass of an object increases but the volume stays the same?

at constant temperature in a closedcontainer the increase in temperature increases the volume of a gas but not the mass.


What happens to the density as the volume increases?

If volume increases while mass remains the same, the density will decrease.


When air bubbles rises in water its volume increases what happens to its mass and density?

As the air bubble increases in volume, its mass remains constant. Because the mass remains constant but volume increases, density will decrease.


When mass and volume change what happens to the density?

When mass increases and volume stays constant, the density increases. When volume increases and mass stays constant the density decreases. When they both change, then the density will depend on the rate of change of mass and the rate of change of volume.


What happens to mass r when volume increases?

The answer depends on what happens to other characteristics: particularly density or volume


In gases. What happens to the density of a given mass if the volume increases?

it decreases.


What happens to volume if mass stays the same then density decreases?

The mass either decreases or increases


What happens to density if the volume increase?

must decrease


What happens if the density increases?

Density is a characteristic of a given material. Water, for example, has a certain density (which is somewhat dependent upon temperature but let's say that the temperature is constant). It does not matter how much water you have, it will all have the same density. One teaspoon has much less mass, but the same density as an entire ocean.


What happens to the density of an object if the mass increases but the volume stays the same?

If the volume remains the same, the density will increase in direct proportion to the increase in mass.
