Respuesta :

The density (d) of the substance is the quotient obtained when we divide the mass (m) of an object by the volume (v) it occupies. Mathematically,
                              d = m / v
The density of soap is greater compared to that of the sponge because soap is so much heavier compared to sponge. Sponges are usually made up of porous lightweight materials.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the amount of mass of a substance present in per unit volume.

Mathematically,         Density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

As density is directly proportional to mass. So, a substance that has more mass will have more density.

Since, both soap and sponge are occupying same volume. But a soap bar is heavier than a piece of sponge because a soap bar has more mass than a sponge.

Thus, we can conclude that the soap is much more dense than the sponge because soap bar weighs more than a sponge.
