Question

n a presentation about measuring mass, one of your classmates states, "Two objects of the same size will always have the same mass.” Is this statement correct? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Sample Response: Different objects contain different amounts of matter, even if they are the same size. Therefore, two objects of the same size can have different masses.

Hi I know im late on this but for people who are looking for the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:
The statement is not correct.

Reason:
If two objects have the same mass, their respective densities determine their volumes.
By definition,
density = mass/volume.
or volume = mass/density.

Therefore if two objects have the same mass, the mode dense object (with higher density) will occupy less volume than the other object.
