Simply put, density is how tightly “stuff” is packed into a defined space.
For example, a suitcase jam-packed with clothes and souvenirs has a high density, while the same suitcase containing two pairs of underwear has low density. Size-wise, both suitcases look the same, but their density depends on the relationship between their mass and volume.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Volume is the amount of space that an object takes up in three dimensions.
Density is calculated using the following equation: Density = mass/volume or D = m/v.
If something is heavy for its size, it has a high density. If an object is light for its size it has a low density.
The relative densities of an object and the liquid it is placed in determine whether that object will sink or float.
False, they are all different because they help you know different things.

Explanation:
The reaction between alcohol and acidified potassium dichromate is a redox reaction. This reaction can be used to detect a drunken driver.
Alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids depending on the structure of the alcohol. Primary alcohols yield adehydes and carboxylic acids while secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones.
The colour of the acidified potassium dichromate turns from orange to green when exposed to alcohols from the breath of a drunken driver.
