Density, Volume and Mass
Density is the relationship between an object’s volume and its mass.
Describes the crowdedness of atoms.
The more squished together atoms are, the more dense the substance will be.
Unique for every substance!

Volume & Mass
Volume is the amount of space the object occupies,
Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, often measured with a balance scale (sort of like weight)
Weight is not the same as mass! Weight is the force of gravity on an object

Density and Temperature
As a substance is heated, it’s particles spread out therefore lowering its
density.
Place each state in order from LEAST dense to MOST dense: Solid Gas
LiquidLEAST DENSE
- Have more space between atoms; - Are LESS dense than liquid
- The attractive forces between atoms is not strong enough to stop solids from pushing them apart. - LESS dense than solids, but MORE dense than liquids
MOST DENSE
- Do not have a lot of space between atoms; - The most dense of all the sates

The equation for density
Density is the mass of a substance divided by its volume:
Solids = grams/cubic centimeters Liquids = grams/milliliters
Formula to determine the volume of a rectangular solid: Length x Width x Height

Buoyancy is the tendency for materials to sink or float in a liquid
The upward force exerted on objects in a fluid is called buoyant force.
Buoyancy

Buoyancy Continued…
Floating occurs when an object does not fall or
sink
The atoms of the fluid exert a force in the opposite direction of gravity
![Page 11: GRADE 8 SCIENCE DENSITY. Density, Volume and Mass Density Density is the relationship between an object’s volume and its mass. Describes the crowdedness](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022082202/56649ec65503460f94bd19f8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Buoyancy Continued
The shape of an object can create an average
density that is less than the fluid it is submerged in
EXAMPLE:
A steel boat can float on water even though steel is
more dense than water.
What is AVERAGE DENSITY?The total mass of an object divided by its total volume

Buoyancy in Fish?
The air bladder in fish contains a mixture of air and water
The fish’s depth in the water depends on how much air is inside the sac. The more water in the
sac the lower the fish sinks.
The more air in the sac the higher the fish rises.
This is how a submarine works underwater!

Archimedes
Archimedes used water displacement to determine the volume of the kings crown, then he weighed it to find the mass. The volume of water displaced
would be equal to the volume of the crown.
![Page 15: GRADE 8 SCIENCE DENSITY. Density, Volume and Mass Density Density is the relationship between an object’s volume and its mass. Describes the crowdedness](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022082202/56649ec65503460f94bd19f8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Calculating the Density of Irregularly Shaped Objects
If an object floats in water, we can immediately conclude that it is less dense than the water.
If we measure the volume of water displaced by the object when it is placed into the container of water, we can calculate the weight of the object, because its weight will be equal to the weight of the water it displaces.

Example
25.5 g
Water level = 5 mL
Water level = 18 mL
Mass = 25.5 g
Volume = 18 – 5 = 13 mL
Density = m / V
Density = ?

Neutral Buoyancy
He also found that if the mass of an object is lighter than the volume of water it displaces then it will float.
When gravity = buoyancy, it is known as neutral buoyancy.
Force of Gravity = Buoyant Force
