500

I have two blocks with a volume of 35 cm3, but one is made of iron and the other is made of wood. Do they have the same density? Why or why not?

They do not because they are made of different materials and therefore have different masses.

What happens to an object's mass and volume when it changes from a liquid to a gas?

Mass stays the same but volume increases.
