Best Answer

2.7T/m3 (+/- 10%). The above answer is for solid rock, generally not crushed stone. Crushed stone of uniform size has a nominal density of 100 pounds per cubic foot (1.6 Metric Tons per cubic Meter). If the crushed stone is a mixture of various sizes, then the open spaces that would be present in crushed stone of uniform size will be filled somewhat by the smaller sizes, and density increases. Typical effective density here ranges from 120 - 140 pounds per cubic foot (1.9 - 2.2 Metric Tons per cubic Meter). Solid Rock will be close to 150 - 170 pounds per cubic foot (2.4 - 2.7 Metric Tons per cubic Meter). Crushed stone density is variable depending on the type of stone, the stone crushing machinery, and how the crushed stone is sorted after crushing.

How does the density of a crushed metal can compare to the density of the metal can before it was crushed?

The crushed can will have a density that is quite a bit higher than the density of the can before it was crushed. Imagine a box of empty aluminum beverage cans. It won't weigh much. If those same cans are crushed, they will weigh the same, but take up a lot less space. The density of the cans can be increased by crushing them. The cans might be said to have a low bulk density before being crushed.

No change. Crushing just pushes out air.
