    Substances with densities less than water float while those with densities greater than water sink. Equal masses of different substances have unequal volumes and equal volumes have unequal masses due to varying densities, which is a substance's mass per unit volume. Density is related to both an object's mass and volume. Lighter gases like hydrogen and helium in balloons rise because their densities are lower than air, and Archimedes discovered the purity of a crown by measuring densities of its materials in water.

    Matter and density

    Substances of densities less than the water density float in water, while other substances of densities more than that of water sink.
    Equal masses of different substances have different volumes; also the equal volumes of different substances have different masses. Why?

    Due to their different densities

    Density

    The mass of volume unit of a substance

    So density is related to an object mass and to its volume as well

    Life Applications

    Water is not used in extinguish petrol fires. Why ?

    Balloons filled with hydrogen or helium rise upwards carrying flags during festivals since their densities are lighter than that of air.

    Archimedes had discovered the purity of a crown made up of gold mixed with copper
