An introduction to density. Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. Density often has units of grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm 3 ). Remember, grams is a mass and cubic centimeters is a volume (the same volume as 1 milliliter). A box with more particles in it will be more dense than the same box with fewer particles. Show credits.

Density is also called as unit weight of substance. It is represented by symbol called row ( p). Density represents the degree of compactness of material. If the material is of more density, it is more compacted material. Density is defined as the ratio of mass to volume. p = m/v Units = kg/m 3 or lb/ft 3 Conversion: 1 kg/m 3 = 0.624 lb/ft 3.

Therefore, the sand sinks. Students should realize that if an object weighs more than an equal volume of water, it is more dense and will sink, and if it weighs less than an equal volume of water, it is less dense and will float. Remember that the density of water is about 1 g/cm 3. Predict whether the following objects will sink or float.
