Physics. Practical 5: Density. Practical Objective. Content Objective. Apparatus. Your teacher may watch to see if you can: The density of a substance is the mass of a unit volume of that substance. Almost all substances are most dense when they are solids and least dense when they are gases. The arrangement of particles can
