Density as a Concept

100

At what density will an object float in water?

Any density less than 1.0 g/cm cubed

200

If you decrease the mass of an object but not the volume, what happens to density?

The density decreases

300

If you decrease the volume of an object but the mass, what happens to its density?

The density increases

400

If I put a 5,000 pound an object in a swimming pool, will it sink or float?

We do not have enough information to answer

500

Will the following object float or sink?

Mass = 25g

Volume = 22mL

It will sink

Solving for Density
