The ratio of the mass of an object to its volume is defined as the object?
Density is the ratio of mass to volume of a substance. d = rho = m / V Density generally depends upon the following : ( 1 ) Identity of the substance ( 2 ) Temperature ( 3 ) Pressure for gases
What two properties must be measured in order to determined the density of an object?
the equation for density is; p = m/V so you would need to find the mass of a substance for a certain volume
When you divide the mass of a substance by its volume you get its what?
When we divide the mass of a substance by its volume we get its density.
Why does the density of a substance not change no matter how much of the substance you have?
Because density is a "ratio".
How many ounces in 1.36 liters?
An ounce is a measure of weight. A liter is a measure of volume. The two can not be equated without providing the density of the substance being measured.
How can you use the word density in a sentence?
The density of a substance can be measured in a laboratory.
Is the density of a substance obtained by dividing its volume with its weight?
The density is measured by dividing the mass of the substance with it's volume. Density = Mass/Volume.
What is the use of meter?
Lactometer is used in measuring the density of milk.
What is the use of lacto meter?
Lactometer is used in measuring the density of milk.
What is the principle of lactometer?
A Lactometer is a little glass instrument that tests the purity of milk based on density/buoyancy and works on the principle of the specific gravity of milk.
What measurements must be known in order to find the density of a substance?
To find the density of a substance, you need to know its mass and its volume. The mass is usually measured in grams or kilograms, while the volume can be measured in cubic centimeters or milliliters for solid objects, or in liters for liquids. By dividing the mass by the volume, you can calculate the density of the substance.
How do you determine if a substance is more dense or less dence?
Density is measured and expressed as the mass to volume ratio. To determine what the density of a substance you measure its mass and divide that number by its measured volume (or you can look up the density based on what composes it). Then, using the same units, do the same for another substance. The substance with the larger number is more dense, has more mass per volume, than the substance with the lower number, and the same in reverse with respect to less density.
What instrument measures the density of milk?
Lactometerlactometer
To measure how much stuff is a specified volume of a substance scientist use?
They would use density to measure the volume of a substance :)
What is a lactometer?
This is an instrument used to determine the richness of milk. due to the specific gravity
How do you calculate the number of tablespoons in one ounce?
You need to know the density of the substance being measured.
Will the density of gold ever change?
No density of a object (mostly solids) never change not even when gold is in a ring or a necklace. Because in my science book it states "Density is a physical property of a substance. Density is the same for a substance no matter how much it is measured"
