Work Step by Step

It is important to note that mass and volume are not directly comparable. They are two different physical properties of matter. The mass of an object tells you how heavy it is, while the volume tells you how much space it takes up. a. 1.0 kg of feathers has a greater volume because feathers are less dense than lead. b. 100 g of water have a greater volume than 100 g of gold because water is less dense than gold.. c. 1.0 L of copper and 1.0 L of mercury have the same volume, as the volume is specified as 1.0 L for both.
