How to find(calculate) Density
Lower density items sink or float
Volume
Mass
Higher density items sink or float
A. This does NOT cause things to sink or float
Low Density particle spacing
High Density particle spacing
Density
A. This causes things to sink and float
Lower density
Weight
Higher Density
How heavy something is compared to its size
Amount of space an object takes up
sink
Amount of matter in an object
A measure of gravity on an object's mass
float
material at a higher temperature has a density that is...
material at a lower temperature has a density that is...
A. Weight
particles are far apart
D = m/v Mass divided by volume
particles are close together
A. Density
