Density studies the compactness of something.
Take mass as something that causes it to have weight.
Take volume as the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object.
When the mass of a certain object A is greater than the volume of a certain other object B, then the object is said to be VERY COMPACT (high density) and vice versa.
What else can I help you with?
How do you determine the identity of an unknown substance by observing its mass and volume?
All you can do with mass and volume is to determine the density of the substance. density = mass / volume or p=m/v after you determine the density, you can look on any density table and find the substance you are looking for. good look. -julio
How could density be used to determine the mass of a particular volume of a substance?
To determine the mass of a particular volume of a substance using density, you would multiply the density of the substance by the volume of the sample. The resulting value would give you the mass of the substance based on the known density and volume relationship (mass = density x volume).
How can you determine the density of a substance?
To determine the density of a substance, you would divide the mass of the substance by its volume. The formula for density is density = mass/volume. Measurements should be taken in units such as grams for mass and cubic centimeters for volume.
What does the density of a substance determine?
It determines the mass of the substance per unit volume.
What does a density of a substance determine?
It determines the mass of the substance per unit volume.
What is the mass for 20cm3 volume?
That depends what substance you are talking about. You have to multiply the volume by the density of the substance.
How could density be used to determine the mass of particular volume of a substance?
In a set volume of any substance increasing the density increases its mass
What is the density of the mass of 57.33g?
You will like to know the volume of the mass. Mass / volume will give you density. You can not know the density without mass and volume of the substance.
What is a property of a substance that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance?
Anything that has mass and occupies volume is called matter. In any substance its volume can vary but the mass is its intrinsic property. Mass of a particular substance remains the same anywhere we go but that is not the case for weight of a substance.
How do you determine the substance given the mass?
To determine the substance given the mass, you would need to compare the mass to the known density of various substances. By dividing the mass by the volume (which can be calculated from the dimensions of the object), you can determine the density of the substance. Then, you can compare this density to known values to identify the substance.
What two pieces of data are needed to mathematically determine density?
To mathematically determine density, you need the mass of the object or substance and its volume. The density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.
What factors determine density?
The factors that determine density include the mass and volume of a substance. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. Different substances have different densities based on how closely packed their molecules are. Temperature and pressure can also affect the density of a substance.
