decreasing density

DENSITY

Which is heavier: 1kg of feathers or 1 kg of gold?

They have the same mass, but what is different about

them?

Density describes how heavy an object is for its size

eg: 1kg of feathers would take up a lot of room because

feathers are not very heavy for their size. They have a low

density.

1kg of gold metal does not take up much space as it has a

high density
