Density
Density Hillary Clark 10/6/17 P4 What is Density? Have you ever wondered why water and oil don’t mix? The oil always floats to the top, and density is the reason why. Because oil is less dense than water, they will not mix. Density is the ratio of the mass of an object to its volume. In other words, density is the amount of stuff (atoms,molecules,etc.) in a fraction of matter. How to Find Density To find the density of an object, you first need to know the things mass and volume.Then, you divide the object’s mass by its volume to find the density. Mass is measured in grams (g), and volume is measured in cubic centimeters (cc), or centimeters cubed (cm3) . When you find the density after dividing, you must label your a...
