Clare Huff · Answer 1

The only statement on the options that says true about density is:

> The density of an object determines whether it will sink or float.

Why?

Density is a physical property of an object.

Density is not derived as a unit of measure. It is derived from 2 fundamental units: kg and m.

The Density of an object is not constant.

Density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of an object.

Drew Woodard · Answer 2

The density of a substance is the relationship between the mass of the substance and how much space it takes up (volume). The mass of atoms, their size, and how they are arranged determine the density of a substance. Density equals the mass of the substance divided by its volume;
