The volume of a stone or any irregular solid non-porous object can be determined by placing the object slowly into a container filled with water up to the very top. The water that runs over the edge of the container must be collected and measured in another container, such as a cylinder type or rectangular/square shape from which a square area can be calculated to determine the displaced volume of water.

How did you get the volume of the stone?
volume can be calculated from weight and density using the formula,volume=weight/density.It can be measured by using jars by measuring the volume of fluid displaced by the stone(put stone into a fully filled jar with water.Measure the volme of water overflown gives the volume of stone).
How can you find the volume of a small stone?
-Use a a measuring cylinder and put 50 litres of water inside. slowly put the stone in and record the new volume. take the new volume and take away 50 and you got the volume of the stone. -Use the displacement method if the stone cannot fit into the measuring cylinder.
How do you fine the density ot a stone if the mass is 20g and the volume is 10cm3?
density = mass divided by volume density = 20/10 = 2 g/cm3
How do you find the volume of an irregular shaped object?
by using the water displacement method of Archimedes. For example,a stone's volume(an irregularly-shaped figure) can be measured by dropping it in a graduated cylinder with water(for example 20g water)...then the water will be displaced after you immersed the stone into it(it became 35g).the total displaced water(15g) will be the stone's volume.. this is the same with what happened to Archimedes when he was asked by a king to determine whether his crown was made of pure gold. for more info,just read some books..lol!

How can you measure of volume of a stone by using an overflow can?
The water displaced by the stone is directly proportional to its volume
How will you find the volume of stone using measuring cylinder?
The volume of the stone is measured by displacement. Water is put into the measuring cylinder to a noted mark. The stone is placed in the cylinder and the water level will rise. The difference between the two levels is the volume in ml of the stone.
What instrument measures the volume of a small stone?
A measuring cyling ( you fill it up with water then you put the stone in and the change is the volume)
How can you calculate the volume of a stone when its in water?
you subtract the weight of the water from the weight of the measuring cylinder and you get the volume of the stone

What general property of matter is illustrated when the volume of the stone is measured by water displacement method?

What is the volume of stone mountain?
It's been surveyed and the volume was estimated at 7,532,750,950 cubic feet.
Why doesn't a stone float?
The stone is heavier than the same volume of water. In short the density of the stone is more than the water. So the stone does not float on the water.
How can get the volume of solid irregular shapes?
REQUIREMENT: stone(volume to be measured), a beaker, thread, water.PROCEDURE: 1. Take water in a beaker half liter or a liter of water.2. Take another beaker with water and put into stone for half hour.3. Now tied the stone with thread and put in in step 1 beaker,the increased volume in beaker is your stone volume.Thanks.

Why the glass of water overflowed if stone dropped?
If the glass is even partially filled a stone thrown at sufficient speed will splash water below the kinetic energy of the stone will be dissipated by transferring it to the water. However if the stone is gently dropped into the glass of water (and it was full or nearly full) then the stone which is not soluble in water will displace an amount of water equal to its volume which will overflow.
