No, the density of an object is a property of the substance itself, not the shape or size of the whole object.

You appear to already have the correct answers, but you might consider the same questions using weight (a term that implies gravity) instead of density which is mass per unit volume. Not wieght per unit volume. The shape of an object might very well effect that objects gravity.

No, the density of an object depends entirely on the number and weight of atoms and molecules it contains complared to that of water in its fluid state. The shape of the object is completely irrelevant.

No, the density of an object depends entirely on its molecular structure.

No, it depends only on the mass, volume and type of material ( it is a matter property), it can be calculated through:
density = mass / volume

I wouldn't think so, unless it was dense enough to have enough gravity to make it form a sphere.
