Not necessarily. The mass depends on how close together the particles are. If the particles are further apart, the mass will not be as high as if the particles are closer together. So even if two objects take up the same amount of space, they may not weigh the same.

∙ 14y agoNot usually. 500 grams of styrofoam will take up much more space than 500 grams of iron. You must know the density of the substance to determine how much volume it will take up. Water has a density of 1g/cc, while Iron as I remember is about 13 g/cc.
therefore 1g of water would have a volume 13 times greater than 1 gran of iron.

∙ 12y agoOf course not. A quart jar full of air and a quart jar full of stones obviously
don't have the same mass. You can feel that by lifting one in each hand.
The weight you feel is directly related to the mass in each case.

∙ 9y ago(1) VOLUME
Objects with the same WEIGHT are not necessarily the same VOLUME.
[For example, a ton of lead and a ton of feathers both weigh the same, but their volumes would be completely different.]
(2) WEIGHT
Weight depends where you are: WEIGHT is affected by gravity but MASS is constant, so on the earth both the mass and weight of something are the same.
[For example, a man weighing 100 kg [14 Stone] on Earth, but if he went to the Moon he would only weigh one-sixth of that because the Moon's gravity is one-sixth that of Earth.]
(3) MASS
Mass is indestructible. No matter where you are in the universe your mass will never change
Mass can never be zero. Everything in the universe has mass. If it didn't it simply wouldn't exist
Mass is not related to gravity, centrifugal force, etc and these forces have no effect whatsoever on your mass
More gravity - the heavier the object. Less gravity - the lighter the object.
Unlike mass, weight can be zero.
[For example, an astronaut floating in space has no gravity acting on his body and, therefore, he has no weight]
Formula:
Weight (W) = Mass (M) multiplied by gravitational acceleration (g).
That is (W = mg)
This formula is Sometimes written as:
Force (F) = Mass (M) multiplied by acceleration (a).
That is (F = ma)
In summary:-
-The MASS and WEIGHT of the 2 objects would only be the same if they were both on earth.
[If not, use the formula to calculate the Weight]
Objects with the same WEIGHT are not necessarily the same VOLUME unless unless their density is the same. .
[on earth Volume is not affected by Density, but in space if gravitational attraction is less the Volume is greater. Just to make it complicated, then there's Inner Space.of Atoms.....! ]

∙ 15y agoIf the objects have the same density, yes. If the object do not have the same density, then no.
Density = mass / volume.

∙ 12y agoOnly if they have the same density. Aside from that, not. For example, 1 kilogram of water will have about 19.3 times the volume of the same mass of gold.

What is the same with mass and volume?
Any volume of non-vacuum anything has mass. Any mass has volume. Both mass and volume have an 'm' in the word. Other than that, they are not at all the same thing.
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
Why can two objects with the same mass and volume have the same density?
the volume could be different that could lead to the same density. For example: d=m/v so you would have a mass of 10 for compound A and a mass of 5 for compound B, and the volume of compound A is 2 and the volume of compound B has a volume of 1. Therefore both densities equal 5.
What is mass divided by its volume?
Any extensive quantity divided by volume is called that quantity density .A baby's mass is small, a baby's volume is small ; but its average mass density (mass divided by volume) is the same as for anyone - anyone composed of the same materials, in the same fractions.
Is volume and mass the same thing?
No, volume and mass are related but they are not the same. As an example, 1 liter of water has a mass of 1 kg whereas 1 liter of mercury has a much higher mass. Mathematically, Mass divided by volume is equal to density. Mass has units of Kg and volume has units of m3.
What is the same with mass and volume?
Any volume of non-vacuum anything has mass. Any mass has volume. Both mass and volume have an 'm' in the word. Other than that, they are not at all the same thing.
Why do two samples with the same substance with the same volume HAVE to have the same mass?
Because they are of the same substance they have the same density density = mass/volume
Why can two objects with the same mass have different densities?
Volume. Density depends on mass and volume. Density = mass/volume. Things that have the exact same mass can have different densities if the volume associated with either are different.
If A sponge and a brick that are the same size they have the same what?
no; they have the same volume but their mass is quite different; density is mass/volume and the sponge has much lower density
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
Can objects with the same mass have the same volume?
no
How does decreasing the mass change the object's density?
Density is mass divided by volume. If the volume remains the same, decreasing the mass decreases the volume.
Why does mass and volume affect density?
The density of a substance is its mass divided by its volume. So for the same volume the higher the mass, the higher the density.
How can a small object be more dense if it does not have the most mass?
You seem to be thinking that density is the same as mass, or proportional to mass. That is not the case. Density is mass divided by volume. For example, two objects of the same material have the same density. The larger object will have more mass (in the numerator), but it will also have more volume (in the denominator).
Why can two objects with the same mass and volume have the same density?
the volume could be different that could lead to the same density. For example: d=m/v so you would have a mass of 10 for compound A and a mass of 5 for compound B, and the volume of compound A is 2 and the volume of compound B has a volume of 1. Therefore both densities equal 5.
Is volume and mass the same?
No.No.No.No.
