Density

Cards (45)

  • The formula to calculate density is density = mass / volume
  • Density is the mass per unit volume.
  • Different materials have different densities, with some being more dense than others.
  • Materials can be classified as solids, liquids or gases based on their physical properties.
  • Solids are rigid and maintain their shape when subjected to forces.
  • Mass is measured in kilograms (kg).
  • Volume is measured in cubic metres (m3) or litres (L).
  • Materials that are less dense float on top of denser liquids or solids.
  • Gases do not have any fixed shape or volume and fill up whatever space they occupy.
  • Volume is measured in cubic meters (m^3) or liters (L).
  • Gases do not have any fixed shape or volume and fill whatever space they occupy.
  • Water expands when it freezes due to its unique crystal structure.
  • Liquids take the shape of their container but retain their own volume.
  • Liquid water has a higher density at lower temperatures compared to warmer temperatures.
  • To find the density, divide the mass by the volume.
  • To convert between units of measurement, use conversion factors such as 1 kg/dm^3 = 1000 kg/m^3.
  • The three states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) differ in terms of particle arrangement and energy levels.
  • Water has a density of approximately 1000 kg/m^3 at room temperature.
  • The density of an object depends on its composition and structure.
  • Different substances have different densities, with some being less dense than others.
  • Density can be calculated using the formula: density = mass / volume.
  • Objects made from the same material will have similar densities regardless of their size or shape.
  • Objects with higher densities than water will sink, while objects with lower densities than water will float.
  • The density of water at room temperature is approximately 1000 kg/m^3, making it more than eight times denser than air.
  • The density of water at room temperature is approximately 1000 kg/m^3.
  • The density of liquids can be determined by measuring mass and volume using a graduated cylinder.
  • Objects with higher density have more particles packed into the same amount of space compared to objects with lower density.
  • Some examples of high-density substances include metals like gold, lead, iron, and steel.
  • To calculate the density of an object, divide its mass by its volume.
  • Solids are rigid materials that maintain their shape and size even under pressure.
  • Solids have a definite shape and volume, while liquids take the shape of their container but maintain a constant volume.
  • The SI unit for density is kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m^3).
  • Solids have a definite shape and volume.
  • Different substances can be separated based on their densities using techniques like filtration, distillation, and centrifugation.
  • Different substances have different densities based on their atomic structure and inter-particle forces.
  • Liquids have particles close together with random movements and no fixed position.
  • The SI unit for density is kilogram per meter cube (kg/m^3).
  • Solids have particles arranged closely together with fixed positions and low kinetic energies.
  • Solids are rigid and maintain a fixed shape due to strong bonds between particles.
  • Gas molecules move around randomly and occupy large volumes compared to solids or liquids.
