Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. If you can take a unit volume, (1cm3) of a material, the measured mass is it's density.

Also, if you cannot separate out a unit volume, you can measure the volume of an object by immersing it in a liquid and measuring the volume of the liquid displaced by the object. Then measure the mass of that object. Density (Mass / Volume)

When mass is measured in kg, and volume in metres, Units of density is kg/m3

In Chemistry, however, density is measured in grams per cubic centimetre, g/cm3

Is density measured?

density= mass/volume


Which expression is a measurement of density?

Density is measured as mass per unit volume. The expression for density is: Density = mass/volume.


If an object has a mass measured in grams and a volume measured in cubic centimeters (cm3) what will the density calculation be measured in?

The density of the object will be measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³). Density is calculated by dividing the mass of the object by its volume.


Is Mass in density the same thing?

No, mass and density are not the same thing. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms, while density is a measure of how much mass is in a certain volume, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.


How is density measured and calculated?

Density is measured by dividing mass by volume using the formula: Density = Mass/Volume. Mass is typically measured in grams and volume in milliliters or cubic centimeters. The resulting unit for density is grams per milliliter (g/mL) or grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).

What property is measured by massvolume?

Mass/Volume = Density.


What is measured in grams per cubic centimeter?

Mass is typically measured on a weighing device, such as a scale or balance. Volume is measured in a flask, beaker or other type of container.However since:M=mass, D=density, V=volume. M=DVSo if you know the density you can weigh the object and determine it's volume. Or you can measure the volume to determine the mass.


Is the density of a substance obtained by dividing its volume with its weight?

The density is measured by dividing the mass of the substance with it's volume. Density = Mass/Volume.

This density is measured by several methods; the simplest is with the formula density=mass/volume.


What is the mass units for density?

Density is measured in units of mass divided by units of volume. The SI unit is kilograms/meter3.
