| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is density? | The relationship of mass of an object to its volume. |
| What is the formula for density? | Density= Mass/Volume |
| What is the formula for Volume? | Volume= Mass/Density |
| What is the formula for mass? | Mass= Density/Volume |
| What is one way that an object's density can be increased? | Density can be increased by cramming more matter into a particular volume of space. |
| What is another way that an object's density can be increased? | Another way is if you cram more volume into a smaller space. |
