Question

If two items are equal in size, the denser one will

Answer 1

If their volumes are equal, then the denser one has more mass.

Answer 2

Answer:

always have a greater mass

Explanation:

The density of an item is given by the following formula:

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$

Here, m es the item's mass and V the Item's volume. So, we have:

$\rho_1=\frac{m_1}{V}\\\rho_2=\frac{m_2}{V}\\V=\frac{m_1}{\rho_1}\\V=\frac{m_2}{\rho_2}\\\frac{m_1}{\rho_1}=\frac{m_2}{\rho_2}\\m_1\rho_2=m_2\rho_1\\\rho_1>\rho2 ----- m_1>m_2$

Therefore, if the volume of both items is the same, the denser one will always have a greater mass.
