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.
