Density (Chemistry)

Hi, Is it intended that both, "Density (mass)" and "Density(Chemistry)" link to Density (Chemistry)? It seems a bit confusing to me. Alexander Wiebel 01:33, 27 June 2008 (CDT)

I agree what is the reason to have mass and chemistry? Chris Day 01:51, 27 June 2008 (CDT)
It was my thought that physicists would prefer "Density (mass)" but that chemists and chemical engineers would prefer "Density (chemistry)". I finally decided to name the article "Density (chemistry)" and to redirect "Density (mass)" directly to "Density (chemistry)" rather than to "Density (disambiguation)".
Alexander and Chris, I don't feel strongly about it one way or another. But I did want to explain why I had "Density (mass)" redirected to "Density (chemistry)". Milton Beychok 11:44, 27 June 2008 (CDT)
