Yes, the density of an object has no relation the number of pieces that the object is divided into, nor to the size of the obect.
For example: The density of 1 pound of steel is exactly the same as the density of 1 ton of identical steel, and the density of 1 mL of water is exactly the same as the density of one Liter of water.
That is the textbook answer, in real life most cutting techniques disturb the boundary of the cut line. So if you want a real to life answer then the density is only changed at the cut line where temperature and pressure will effect the structure of the metal being cut. Textbook answer is density remains unchanged throughout the whole of the material no matter how many times you cut it. think of density as "how hard something is packed together at the molecular level". This is a ok way to look at density. Cheers!

Why does the density stay the same when you cut something in half?
Here are two alternative explanations. 1) Because each piece is made up of the same material as the original piece. Density is a characteristic property of a material. 2) Because density is defined as mass / volume, and if you divide something into two equal pieces, you will get 1/2 the mass for each piece, but also 1/2 the volume.
What is the half of 36?
18.
Half of 56 is equal to 29?
half of 56 is equal to 29
Is one half equal to 12?
no one half is equal to 1/2
How does a line symmetry look?
a symetry looks like half of an object that is equal.like for example a butterfly, you draw a line in between it and, if the sides are equal it is a line of semetry.
Does the density of an object change if the object is cut in half?
No
Does cutting an object in half change the density?
The density of something is the mass divided by the volume, so if you cut the item in half, it will not change the density at all. Instead, the two halves of the item will have the same density.
If you cut an object in half its density?
decreases
Object A is half the size of B The density of A when compared to B is?
size does not relate to density
If aluminum bar is cut in half What is the density of each half compared to the original density of the bar?
It is going to need to be divide by the original density and then after you find that out you get your answer.
How does the density of one object compare to half of the same object?
It's identical. (assuming that the object is homogeneous)
What happens to the density of a object if you cut it in half?
The density stays the same. The reason why is because the density of something is mass divided by volume, so if you cut the object in half, it will not change at all. :) ((and yes the other answer was gibberish lol.))
What happens to the density of an object when you break it in half?
Assuming the object is the same straight through - nothing.
What effect does the density of liquid have on the buoyancy of an object?
An object with lower density than the liquid will float, one with more density will sink. Anything with the same density will stay at the depth where it is placed. If it is placed half submerged it would sink until submerged.
When a balloon is heated its volume is doubled what happens to its density?
The density decreases by half. You find the answer by knowing that density is equal to mass divided by the volume. If the mass stays constants and the volume is doubled, then the density is halved.
When a Balloon is heated it's volume doubles . What happens to its density?
The density decreases by half. You find the answer by knowing that density is equal to mass divided by the volume. If the mass stays constants and the volume is doubled, then the density is halved.

The density decreases by half. You find the answer by knowing that density is equal to mass divided by the volume. If the mass stays constants and the volume is doubled, then the density is halved.
