Can a increase in density result from an increase in mass and no change in volume?

Yes. Density is mass/volume so if mass increases so does density if volume does not change

Do you need great pressure change to have a measurable change density in gases?
Density = mass / volume, so to change density you need to change the mass within a fixed volume or the volume of a fixed mass. Increasing the mass or decreasing the volume will increase the pressure by a linear degree, so no, the density of a gas is very easy to change. E.G.: Decreasing the volume by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.1%. Increasing the mass by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.0%.
Does changing the volume of a particular substance change its mass to volume ratio?
mass to volume ratio is nothing but density density is inversely proportional to volume hence if volume decreases density will increase and vice-versa
What is a result to increasing the temperature of a gas?
In a closed system the pressure increase. In other conditions the volume increase and the density decrease.
Is the density of an object equal to it's mass per unit volume?
An object's density is inversely proportional to the object's volume. As the volume increases the density decreases, and vice versa.
How do you change the mass or volume of a gas in order to decrease the density?
- modifying the temperature- modifying the pressure- modifying the volume
How can you change the overall density of an object?
In a simple way, since density = mass /volume, the density of an object can be changed by changing either mass or volume of an object .
How does a change volume affect an objects density when mass stays the same?
With constant mass, a decrease in volume will increase the the density. Conversely, an increase in volume will decrease the density.

What happens to density if the volume increase?
must decrease
Is temperature the only thing that affects density?
It is the easiest way to affect the volume which would change the density. However, if you increase the pressure but keep temperature constant the volume will also change. Any change in volume affects density.
Does changing the volume of a particular substance change its mass to volume ratio?
mass to volume ratio is nothing but density density is inversely proportional to volume hence if volume decreases density will increase and vice-versa
When density decrease it gets smaller or larger?
Density is mass divided by volume. Assuming the mass doesn't change, if the density decreases, then the volume must increase.
If the volume of an object increases what will the density do?
it will increase. the epuation for density is mass divided by volume.
Does a fluid's density change when it is compressed and attenuated?
Yes it does change because its mass does not change but its volume does. When it is compressed the density will increase because its volume does. When it is attenuated will decrease because the volume does. Density is mass over volume. Remember: it only works because its mass stays the same and the volume changes.
If mass increases and volume stays the same then density?
no density would increase, mass = volume x density if we assume that the volume of the substance cannot change then the only way to increase mass would be if that substance became more dense.
When temperature increases does density increase or decrease?
An increase in temperature usually causes an increase in volume. Since the mass doesn't change, density decreases. tt
What happens to density when volume or mass is affected?
Density = Mass / Volume Therefore: Increase in Mass --> Increase in Density Increase in Volume --> Decrease in Density and Vice Versa.. :) Hope this helped
