Density Challenge

This advanced worksheet invites students to apply their understanding of density in complex problem-solving scenarios. They calculate, compare, and explain density relationships across solids, liquids, and gases while integrating reasoning about volume, mass, and floating behavior. Some questions introduce compound reasoning involving mixed materials and proportional changes. Students deepen comprehension of how density remains constant for identical materials regardless of size. The challenge promotes critical thinking, algebraic reasoning, and conceptual mastery.
