DENSITY
Packing It In! What is density? Density is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. The density of a substance remains the same no matter how much of the substance you have.
How is density determined? Density is mass divided by volume, or D = m V Common units for expressing density are grams per cubic centimeter, or g/cm3. In water, which has a density of 1 g/mL, objects with density greater than 1 g/mL sink. Objects with density less than 1 g/mL float
Formula for Density
Units for Density Solid---g/cm3 Liquid---g/mL Gas---g/L
Remember!!!! 1cm3=1mL
