5. What happens to the density of a material if you have a larger piece of it?(1 point)

Question

The density will be greater because the mass increases but the volume remains the same.
The density will be greater because the mass increases but the volume remains the same.

The density will remain the same because mass and volume will remain the same.
The density will remain the same because mass and volume will remain the same.

The density will be smaller because the mass remains the same as the volume increases.
The density will be smaller because the mass remains the same as the volume increases.

The density will remain the same because mass and volume will both increase in the same way.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

The density will remain the same because mass and volume will both increase in the same way.

Density is defined as mass divided by volume (density = mass/volume). When you have a larger piece of material, both the mass and the volume increase, but the ratio (density) stays the same.
