Question
For each of the following, decide which block is more dense:the orange block, the blue block, or it cannot be determined. Explain your answers.
Step 1
Orange block: mass = 10 kg, volume = 5 L Blue block: mass = 20 kg, volume = 10 L Density = mass/volume Orange block density = 10 kg / 5 L = 2 kg/L Blue block density = 20 kg / 10 L = 2 kg/L In this case, both blocks have the same density. Show more…

For each of the following figures, a through d, decide which block is more dense: the orange block, the blue block, or it cannot be determined. Explain your answers.
For each box, examine the blocks attached to the balances. Based on their positions and sizes, determine which block is more dense (the dark block or the lighter-colored block), or if the relative densities cannot be determined. (Think carefully about the information being shown.)
