4. The units for density are g/ml or g/cm3
Density is the amount of matter in a given volume. (Density = Mass/Volume)
The units for density are g/ml or g/cm3
In other words, density is how tightly packed the atoms are in an object.

5. Both the objects have the same volume (size).
Let’s compare two objects of equal size, a block of wood and a block of copper
Both the objects have the same volume (size).
The matter (particles) that make up the wood are farther apart than the particles of matter that make up the copper. The matter in the copper is more compacted than the matter in the wood.
The farther apart the particles, the less dense the substance.

6. What would the density be?
If you have two trashcans of equal volume and you place the same amount of garbage in both cans,
What would the density be?

7. What if you climb in trashcan B and jump up and down on top of the trash compressing the trash or matter into the
bottom of the can? You can climb out, put more trash in the can, and repeat this task until you cannot put anymore trash in can B.
Which is more dense now?
