PLEASE HELP!
How would the density of water change if you measured out ½ cup instead of ¼ cup? Explain your answer in complete sentences

Answer 1

Okay, so I donot know how much the volume of this "cup" is, but the density will not change. It can be seen clearly from the definition of density itself. Density is mass per unit volume. This means that when density is determined, you take 1 unit of the thing you like, and calculate the mass contained in that unit volume. This thing remains constant as long as the temperature is kept constant or you're not forcing a change on the substance. So, both the samples will have same density which is 1 g/cm^3.
