Question

If you tripled the volume of your sample of chalk what would happen to the mass

Answer 1

The mass would also increase by the same amount/rate.

Answer 2

Answer: The mass will also be tripled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

`Density=(mass)/(Volume)`

Density is characteristic of a substance and it remains constant at a particular temperature.

If volume increases/decreases then mass also increases/decreases proportionally. Hence density remains constant.

Thus when volume of the sample is tripled , the mass will also increase thrice or become tripled.
