ANS: Density is defined as mass per unit volume.

Density = mass / volume

By apply the value of mass and the volume in the above equation the denity can be calculated.

DENSITY OF A BODY IS DEFINED AS ITS MASS BY ITS VOLUME . IT CAN BE FOUND BY DIVIDING MASS BY VOLUME . DENSITY OF PURE WATER IS 1000 . DENSITY OF BODIES LESS THAN 1000 FLOATS IN WATER WHEREAS DENSITY OF BODIES MORE THAN 1000 SINK IN WATER . THE PLANET SATURN ACTUALLY FLOATS IN WATER BECAUSE ITS DENSITY IS LESS THAN 1000 .

Shubham answered this

the mass upon volume of a substance is termed as density

Kriss answered this

The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the substance.

We can also say that it is the amount of matter in unit volume of a substance.

Density= Mass/Volume.

SI Unit is kg/m ³

Eg: Density of water = 1000 kg/m3

Hope this Helps

Density, amount of a substance contained within a specific area. In Science(for which you are asking the question)density is the ratio of the mass of a substance to its volume, and it can be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume

Answer ::

The mass density or density of a material is its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho). Mathematically, density is defined as mass divided by volume:^[1]

$rho = frac{m}{V},$

where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume. In some cases (for instance, in the United States oil and gas industry), density is also defined as its weight per unit volume,^[2] although this quantity is more properly called specific weight.
