Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is an intensive property of a substance. Intensive properties are those properties that are characteristic of a substance. They do not depend on the amount of substance present.

Since density is an intensive property, each piece of sulphur still has a density of 2g/cm3.
