Question

What does the density of an object tell you about the object is it how compact the object is what an amount of space the object takes up what the weight of the object is or how much matter the object has

Answer 1

The density of an object primarily tells you about how compact the object is. Density is defined as mass per unit volume (density = mass/volume). A higher density indicates that more mass is packed into a given volume, making the object more compact.

While density relates to the amount of matter (mass) and the space (volume) an object occupies, it does not directly tell you the weight of the object, as weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object and depends on both mass and the gravitational field strength.
