Density studies the compactness of something.
Take mass as something that causes it to have weight.
Take volume as the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object.
When the mass of a certain object A is greater than the volume of a certain other object B, then the object is said to be VERY COMPACT (high density) and vice versa.
If those measurements have already been made and you have the results,
simply divide the mass by the volume, and the quotient is the density.
Find the volume in liters, muliply by the sepcific gravity of the substance, this will give the weight in kilograms.
You can divide the mass by the volume and find the density. Density can be used to identify a substance.
The mass is measured with a balance.
The volume is measured with graduated cylindres, pipettes, burettes etc.
All you can do with mass and volume is to determine the density of the substance. density = mass / volume or p=m/v after you determine the density, you can look on any density table and find the substance you are looking for. good look. -julio
In a set volume of any substance increasing the density increases its mass
So they can determine the density of a substance. Density = mass/volume. Density can be used to identify a substance.
It determines the mass of the substance per unit volume.
It determines the mass of the substance per unit volume.
In a set volume of any substance increasing the density increases its mass
Anything that has mass and occupies volume is called matter. In any substance its volume can vary but the mass is its intrinsic property. Mass of a particular substance remains the same anywhere we go but that is not the case for weight of a substance.
Weigh it to determine the mass, then determine how much volume it displaces (in something it does not dissolve in). Divide mass by volume, you've got density.
Use the formula density = mass divided by volume.
it's mass, and it's volume.
Matter occupies space and has mass. As such, the amount of matter present in a substance will determine its mass as well as its volume.
The density of this mass is about 3 g/mL
