What are two of the same substances that have the same mass but different volumes?

First of all, there's no such thing as the mass of a substance, or the volume of a substance. You can have 0.01 kilogram of water or 10,000 kilograms of water. It only depends on how much you decide to scoop out of the bucket. The water itself has no characteristic mass. Similarly, you can have 1 milliliter or 1 cubic kilometer of potato salad. It only depends on how much you buy at the deli. The potato salad itself has no characteristic volume. If you measure out the same mass of two different substances, then the sample of the substance with the greater density will have less volume. If you measure out the same volume of two different substances, then the sample of the substance with the greater density will have more mass.


Why same amount of heat supplied to same amount of different substances does not produce the same increase in temperature?

There is a formula in physics ΔQ=m*c*ΔT, where m is the mass of the substance you are heating, ΔQ is the heat you supply to the substance, c is the specific heat which has a different value for different substances and ΔT is the change in temperature. If your substances are different and they have the same mass then by supplying the same amount of heat the change in temperature will be different.

Why is it that two different substances that have the same masses can have differen weights?

Two different substances that have the same mass will also have the same weight if they are in the same location. Weight is the force of gravity acting on the mass of a body (or substance). The force of gravity decreases the further you are from the center of the earth, so it is possible for two substances with the same mass to have different weights if they are at different distances from the center of the earth.


Is a substance the same as an ingredient?
