Que-1: Water is heated from 0°C to. 10°C How does the density of water change with temperature?
Ans: On heating from 0°C the density of water increases up to 4°C and then decreases beyond 4°C.
Que-2: What do you understand by the term relative density of a substance?
Ans: The relative density of a substance is the ratio of density of that substance to the density of given reference material and the density of water at 4°C.

Que-3: Define relative density as a ratio of mass ?
Ans: Relative density is also defined as a ratio of mass of a certain volume of a substance to the mass of an equal volume of water at 4°C.
Que-4: Differentiate between density and relative density of a substance.
Ans:
| Density | Relative density |
| The density of a material is its mass per unit volume. | Relative density of a substance is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water. |
| ρ = m/V | RD = ρsubstance/ρwate |
| SI unit of density is kg/m3. | Relative density is a dimensionless quantity. |
Density of a substance is the ratio of its mass to its volume but R.D. of a substance is the ratio of density of that substance to the density of water at 4°C.
