No. Volume can normally be worked out from measurements. Mass is irrelevant.

How do you calculate the volume of an object when you are given only the mass and the density?

density=mass/volume volume=mass/density


How can I find the mass if only the volume and density are given?

Density = (mass) divided by (volume)Mass = (Density) times (volume)


How do you find DENSITY If only mass and volume is given?

You can't. In order to calculate a density, you need a mass and a volume.


How do you find volume when only the mass is given?

It's not possible.


How do you calculate mass if we are given only volume?

You can't. You need to know content.


How do you find mass when density is only given?

The relation between mass(M), density(ρ) and volume(V) is given by: M = ρ x V. So mass can be calculated only if both density and volume are known. Density is a measure of amount of substance per unit volume, so mass can't be calculated until the volume of substance is known.


How can you calculate the volume and density with only the mass?

You cannot calculate volume and density with only the mass. If the exact material forming the mass is known, then density can be looked up from a variety of sources and the volume can be calculated as mass divided by density. For example, given only the mass "10 kg" we have no way of knowing the volume or density. However, given "10 kg of gold" we can look up the density (19.3 grams per cubic centimeter) and divide 10,000 by 19.3 to get a volume of 518.13 cc.


How do you find the volume and density if only the mass was given?

You cannot. You can determine the third variable if two are given but not determine two when given only one. You have to find some other way to first determine volume or density.


Density is referring to the amount of mass in only 1 of matreial?

Density refers to the mass of a given volume of a substance for comparative purposes usually.


What is the density of 4.3 millimeters of an unknown if its mass is 16.75 grams?

Density is defined as mass per unit volume. In this particular question, the information on volume is not given. Whereas three linear measures are required to calculate a volume, only one is given. It is therefore not possible to determine the volume and so not possible to give an answer.


How do you find the mass density of a sphere who's mass is 5000 grams?

Density is the mass per unit volume. e.g. kg/m3. But you've only given one of the quantities needed - we still need the volume of the sphere.


Is milk has volume only or mass only?

No substance can have volume without mass or mass without volume. Milk ... and every other substance we can think of ... has both.
