The mass is measured with a balance.

Measuring the dimensions the volume can be calculated; or after determination of the density: V=M/d.

How do you find the density of a regular solid cube?

You measure its mass and volume and then density = mass/volume.


How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?

You can dip the irregular solid in a water or other suitable liquid. This is how, you can measure the volume of the solid. The mass can be measured by weighing scale. Mass/volume = density. It is easy to measure the mass and volume of the liquid. First measure the mass the container. Then add the liquid to it. You will get the mass of the liquid. Then measure the volume of the liquid. Use the above formula to calculate the density of the liquid.


What tools would you use t measure volume and mass of a solid?

To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.


How do you measure the density or weight of irregular solid?

To measure the density of an irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the volume of water displaced when the solid is submerged in a known volume of water. Then, divide the mass of the solid by the volume of water displaced to calculate the density.


How do you measure a solid object?

What do you want to measure - mass, weight, volume, density. There's no answer for "measure" without indicating what is to be measured.


What is the difference between the methods of finding density of liquid than finding the density of solid?

A solid has air gaps. Density is mass per volume. Volume of the known mass of solid is determined by displacement of liquid in which the solid is insoluble. In case of liquid, the mass of known volume of liquid is determined.


How will you find the density of solid which is heavier than water?

To find the density of a solid heavier than water, you need to measure its mass using a scale and then measure its volume using displacement method or geometric calculation. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the solid.


How do find density if only mass is given of a rectangular solid?

If this rectangular solid is actually in your possession, then you would measure it and calculate the volume, after which you can derive the density by dividing the mass by the volume. If it is not in your possession, then you are clearly being asked to call upon your psychic powers to solve this problem.


What to scientists use to measure the mass of an irregularly shaped solid?

Scientists often use a device called a balance or scale to measure the mass of an irregularly shaped solid. This involves first weighing the solid in air, then submerging it in a liquid of known density to measure the displaced volume, and finally calculating the mass using Archimedes' principle.


How do you find the density of a solid object?

To find the density of a solid object, you need to divide the object's mass by its volume. The formula for density is: Density Mass / Volume. This calculation will give you the amount of mass in a given volume of the object, which is a measure of how tightly packed the particles are within the object.


What measures solid density?

Density = Mass / Volume. There is not an instrument that will measure both so you will need to measure them separately and calculate the density.
