To measure a drop of water you should get a measuring cylender. Say you put 100 drops to make the results more accurate. Lets say 100 drops of water in a measuring cylender would show 200cm^3 . So to find the volume of 1 drop of water instead of 100 you would divide 200 by 100 which would give you 2cm^3 for 1 drop of water
1/15th of one millilitre.
Does not compute; one is weight the other is volume.
1 drop of water is ~ 0.05 ml (milliliters). That's its volume. mm (millimeters) measures length, and isn't normally used to measure a drop of water, since its shape (width & height) varies, depending on how the drop is falling, or suspended, or in a weightless environment, etc...
One way to measure volume of a material is the following: Put the material in a waterproof container, e.g. a tub. Submerge the material in water, register the water level, take the material out and measure what volume of water you need to add to the tub in order to make the water rise to the level it was with the material in. The volume of water you've added equals the volume of the material.
How big is a drop? "A drop" is not a precise measurement. It depends on a number of factors. If you measure how big the drops of water are you're talking about, (in millilitre) then you could figure out the number of molecules based on the fact that Avogadro's number of water molecules have a volume of about 18 milliliters. Avogadro's number is 6.022 * 1023 (particles) per mole One drop: average volume about 0.05 ml = 0.05 g Molar mass of water 18.01 g/mol Meaning: about 1.7*1021 molecules in a drop of water: don't start counting them!!
It is a device that can measure out one drop of water somewhat accurately.
Drop 10 coins of the same size and mass into a container filled with water, making sure that the water that overflows from the container is collected. Now measure the volume of the water overflow an multiply it with the density of water which is 1 kg/l. Now divide the total mass by 10 to get the mass of one coin.
A metric tonm is a measure of mass and has dimension [M]. A kilolitre is a meaure of volume with dimension [L3]. Until the mid 1960s, a litre was defined as the volume of a kilogram of water (under certain conditions). A kilolitre would have corresponded to the volume of a tonne of water.
Ounces can be a measure of weight, or a measure of volume. When referring to a liquid, ounces USUALLY means volume. 8 ounces is one cup.
One way to measure the volume of an irregular object is to use a graduated cylinder. Fill the cylinder about half-way with water, and measure the volume. Then, place the object in the cylinder and measure the new volume. Subtract the first from the second to find the change in volume of the water. This change in volume is the voume of the object. Unfortunately, this method will not work for all objects as some are to large to fit in a graduated cylinder and some will dissolve in water, but it is very usefull in most situations.
One way to figure this out is to put the object in a graduated cylinder containing water and measuring the changes in the volume of the water.
Does not convert; one is a measure of weight and the other is a measure of volume.
