Question

Complete this sentence. If mass remains the same while the volume of a substance ________, the density of the substance will_______________. decreases, decrease increases, decrease increases, stay the same decreases, stay the same

Answer 1

Answer:

increases, decrease

Explanation:

The density of a body is the measure of mass concentration of a material. It is an intrinsic property which is constant. It is the ratio of mass and volume

m = Mass

v = Volume

Density

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

This means that density is inversely proportional to volume.

So, if volume increases density will decrease.

Answer 2

If mass remains the same while the volume increases, the density of the substance will decrease.
If mass remains the same while the volume decreases, the density of the substance will increase.
