Name - Date - Class - Density Notes

1) Density is a measurement of the relationship between an object's mass and its volume. It is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. 2) Mass is measured in grams (kg) and volume is measured in cubic centimeters (cm3). 3) The document provides instructions on how to calculate density by finding the mass of an object and then determining its volume using measurements of length, width, and height or by using liquid displacement.
