Two blocks have equal mass but different volumes.

Density compares mass with volume: density = mass ÷ volume. A large object can have a lower density than a small one. Units matter: grams per cubic centimetre differ from grams alone. Our example blocks are invented for calculation; their values do not identify a real material.
Pause. Make the idea your own.
Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?
You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.Your little investigation
Paper and a pencil, or a partner to talk with. Drawing and speaking are welcome.
Block A has mass 24 g and volume 8 cm³. Calculate its density.
Block B has mass 24 g and volume 12 cm³. Compare it with A.
Draw both volumes and explain why equal mass does not imply equal density.
What is A’s density?
Another question is waiting.
Why does a metal spoon feel cooler?
Feeling temperature and measuring it are different things.
