Which is more denser, 1 kg cotton or 1 kg sand? Why?

1kg of sand is denser than 1kg of cotton.

Explanation: As we know that mass of 1kg cotton is larger than that of 1kg sand.


From the formula:



Density α Mass


As we can observe that density is directly proportional to mass. Larger is the mass, greater will be the density and vice versa. Hence, 1kg sand whose mass is larger will be more denser.
