Short answer

100

This is the amount of matter in an object

what is mass

100

Give the three density formulas

D = M/V

V = M/D

M = VxD

100

Name the three causes of density

atomic mass, atomic bonds, and mixed density

100
How is it possible for ice, water, and steam to all be H2O, yet have different densities. 

They have particles closer together, or more spread out. 

Water expands when frozen, making ice less dense (same mass larger volume)

100

compare the density of cold water to hot water

cold water is more dense

hot water is less dense


heat rises

200

This is the amount of space an object takes up 

What is volume

200

A solid magnesium flare has a mass of 1300g and a volume of 743 cm. What is the density of the magnesium? 

what is 1.74 g/cm

200

this is the major cause of density in oxygen

what is atomic mass

200

why does an objects state of matter affect its density?

The particles in an object will be closer together or further apart - making it more or less dense

200

if you have two samples of the same substance, but one sample is smaller that the other, the smaller sample will........

have the same density


300

This is how compact molecules are within a specific volume 

what is density 


300

Pure gold has a density of 19.3 g/cm. How large would a piece of gold need to be if it had a mass of 318.97g?

what is 16.526 cm

300

this is the major cause of density in sugar

what is atomic bonds

300
When you cut a block of platinum in half what happens to its mass, volume, and density?

what is the 

mass will decrease by half

volume will decrease by half

density will stay the same 

300

This is an element with an atomic mass of 4 amu - 

(cause 1)

what is helium 2 protons, 2 neutrons

400

this is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object.

What is buoyancy 

400

An irregularly-shaped sample of aluminum is put on a balance and found to have a mass of 43.6 g.  You use the water-displacement method to find the volume.  The initial volume reading is  25.4 mL and, after the Al sample is added, the water level has risen to 41.7 mL.  Find the density of the Al.

What is 2.67 g/ml

400

name the three causes of density and give a real life example of each 

atomic mass - vary

atomic bonds - vary

mixed density - vary

400

what is the relationship between a cubic centimeter and a milliliter?

They are equal

1ml = 1cm

400

rank these objects in order from greatest to least 

rubbing alcohol, vegi oil, glass marble, salt water, ping pong ball, tap water

what is

glass marble, salt water, tap water, vegi oil, RA, ping pong ball 

500

this is the simplest and lightest and most abundant element in the universe

what is hydrogen

500

A graduated cylinder has a mass of 50g when empty. when 30ml of water is added the GC has a mass of 120g. if a rock is added to the GC, the water level rises to 75ml and the total mass is now 250g. 

What is the density of the rock? 

What is 130/45 = 2.88 g/ml

500

you are calculating the density of your copper jewelry box.  Inside you have jewelry made from pure gold, silver, platinum and copper. 

Name which cause of density this is, and explain why

cause 3 - mixed density


you are calculating the total densities of a variety of elements together. 

500

Explain in detail what will happen to a birthday candle when placed in tap water and rubbing alcohol?

in water it will float

in RA it will sink

water is more dense that RA

500

this is the cause of density for a Substance 

cause 1 - atomic mass 

and 

cause 2 - atomic bonds

a substance is either an element or compound!
