This chart shows the volumes of four different objects.
A 4-column table with 2 rows titled volumes of four objects. The first row has entries Object 1, Object 2, Object 3, Object 4. The second row has entries 6 centimeters cubed, 8 centimeters cubed, 3 centimeters cubed, 14 centimeters cubed.
If the objects all have the same mass, which object is the most dense?
Object 1
Object 2
Object 3
Object 4
1 answer
The most dense object would be Object 4, as it has the largest volume compared to the other objects. Density is equal to mass divided by volume, and since the mass is the same for all objects, the one with the smallest volume would have the highest density.
