The mass of a rock is just how much it weighs. Density on the other hand can be found by finding the volume or size of the rock (most easily done in small objects by placing the rock into a beaker or graduated cylinder with markings to see how much water the rock displaces. Completely submerge the rock antd the increase in volume in the water is the volume of the rock). Once you know how much volume there is and how much mass there is (mass is how much it weighs) divide the mass by the volume which gives you the density. Density=Mass÷Volume

What is the mass of a rock that weighs 94 newtons?
On earth the rock has a mass of 9.6kg
How much does 1 cubic foot of rock weigh?
The answer depends on the density of the rock. A cubic foot of pumice, for example, can have a mass of around 15.6 pounds whereas minerals rich in metals such as iridium will have mass exceeding 1200 pounds.
How do you calculate the atomic mass of bromine?
To calculate the atomic mass of any element, add the no. of protons and neutrons. There sum will be the atomic mass. The mass of electrons is not counted towards the atomic mass.
What is the mass if a rock that weighs 49 newtons?
The rock's mass on earth will be 5kg (mass = force in newtons / 9.807)
How do you calculate the mass of the atom?
Protons and neutrons= mass
