It depends on how big the brass is compared to the amount of water. If they are both the same size then they occupy the same volume!

If you mean "does brass take up more volume than water for the same weight", then no it does not. The density is a measure of how heavy a substance is for its size, and may be measured in grams per cubic centimetre (equivalent to kilograms per cubic decimetre), kilograms per cubic metre, or some other unit.

For water, the density is 1000 kg/m3, but for brass the figure is 8400 to 8700 kg/m3. So one cubic metre of water has a mass of 1000 kg, but the same volume of brass has a mass over eight times higher. To put that another way, one tonne of brass would take up much less space (volume) than one tonne of water.

Does water with a greater volume cool faster than water with a less volume?

No, water with a greater volume will cool slower than water with a lower volume because it takes more energy to heat or cool a larger volume of water. The larger volume of water will retain heat longer than the smaller volume.


What takes up more space an ice cube or the water?

The water takes up more space than the ice cube. When water freezes into ice, it expands and takes up slightly more volume than it did in its liquid form.


What happened to the volume of water and the wax after freezing?

At freezing the volume of gas increase.


Why does it take longer for water to boil when there's more of it?

It takes longer to boil because there is more of it that therefor takes longer to heat up. This is because a larger volume of liquid is needed to be heated to the same temperature as a small volume of liquid.


What takes up more space 50 pounds of sand or 50 pounds of water?

Sand sinks in water, so it is more dense. Density = mass/volume. Or Volume = Mass/Density. For the same mass, more dense substance will take up less volume. So the water takes up more space.


Why does water at depth in lakes stay cold even on hot summer days?

It takes more heat to raise the temperature of a given volume of water a certain number of degrees than it does to raise the same volume of any other liquid the same number of degrees.


Which weighs more you or your volume of water?

if you are talking about the same glass that had water in it and THEN froze, then my friend the weight is the same. Ofcourse this is correct only if while freezing, no water spilled out of the glass (because ice takes up more space than water.


Why does Lake Ontario have so much water but takes up less space?

The Volume is more than the length


What must happen to the volume of a given mass of solid gold when it becomes a liquid?

the volume increases, the same way water takes up more room then ice.


Why does adding water to a pot of eggs make more room in the pot?

Not really cuz water has mass and volume it takes up space itself


Will the volume of lead be greater or less than one gram of water?

The volume of lead will be greater than one gram of water. The density?æof lead is about 11 times more than that of water.?æ


Why is more heat energy required to rise the temperature of water by 10C when the volume of water is greater?

More heat energy is needed to raise the temperature of a larger volume of water because a larger volume of water contains more molecules, which require more energy to vibrate and increase their kinetic energy. This results in a greater heat capacity for the larger volume of water, meaning it can absorb more heat energy without a significant increase in temperature.
