- You happen to come across a piece of metal that has a density of p 8.12 g/cm3 when the temperature is To = 42.5 °C. If the metal is cooled to a temperature of T1 0.00 °C, does the density change? Yes, the density will decrease since the volume changes. Yes, since the metal contracts and the mass is constant, the density will increase. No, because as the volume changes so does the mass. No, density does not depend on temperature. Calculate the density of the piece of metal at this temperature, P1.
