What has the greater density a cube of water measuring 1cmX1cmX1cm and having a mass of 1g or a block of plastic measuring 2cmX3cmX1cm with a mass of 4g?

Density = Mass/Volume.
For water: 1/(1*1*1) = 1/1 = 1 g/cm3
For plastic: 4/(2*3*1) = 4/6 =2/3 g/cm3.
So the water has the greater density.

Which has the greater density a kilogram of feathers of kilogram of iron?
Iron has a greater density.
How can you make a substance with greater density greater than water float?
if the substance of the element has greater density you can make it float by carving it out so weight over volume of the object is lighter in effective density
Which has a greater weight a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead which has greater density?
They both weight a kilogram. Lead has a higher density.
You have density of 3 equal size balls if density of one ball is twice that of the other 2 what conclusion can you draw about its mass?
Density is mass divided by volume. If the density is greater and the volume is the same then the mass must also be greater for the same size balls.
Which material has greater density lead or feathers?
Lead
What has the greater density a cube of water measuring 1cmX1cmX1cm and having a mass of 1g or a block of plasting measuring 2cmX3cmX1cm with the mass of 4g?
Density = mass/volumeFor the cube of water having a mass of 1g:Volume of a cube of water measuring 1cm X 1cm X 1cm =1cm3.Density = 1g/1cm3 = 1g/cm3For the block of "plasting" having a mass of 4g:Volume of the block of plasting measuring 2cm X 3cm X 1cm = 6cm3.Density = 4g/6cm3 = 0.7g/cm3I will let you decide which has the greatest density.
If you were to ignore the water in the pan on the scale while measuring the mass of a mineral what would be the effect on your density calulation?
The water would add excess mass to your calculation for density. This would cause the density to be greater than the true density.Density = mass / volumeSo if the mass is greater than the true value and the volume is the same, then the density increases.
