Weigh the object. Determine the volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density. To get the volume of an irregular shaped object can be challenging especially if there are cavities (holes) in it. submersion in a liquid or powder of known volume might be possible. Measure the difference in the volume of the liquid and the liquid + the object (making sure the object is entirely below the surface of the liquid and that any cavities are filled).

What is the volume of irregular shape objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
How is the density of a regularly shaped object determined by experiment?
If the shape of the object is regular (a cube or a sphere) then the volume can be calculated from the measurement of the object's key dimension(s). And the object's mass can be determined in a mass balance. Give the mass and volume the density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Where the object's shape is irregular, the volume may be determined by measuring the volume of a liquid displaced by submerging the object completely in that liquid.
Why is light able to travel through some materials but not others?
Light can pass through either objects which have totally regular particle structure (eg:diamond) or objects with a totally irregular particle structure (like air). Objects which have a degree of regularity in their structure but are not totally irregular nor regular do not let light through. Metals, which do have totally regular structure, are shiny due to the fact that the positively charged ions are surrounded by a 'sea' of electrons, which causes them to be shiny.
Is the reflection of light by the smooth walls of your house regular or irregular?

Is ball pen and pencil an irregular object?

What are the units for density on an irregulary shaped object?
The same units are used for regular or irregular objects - for example, kilogram per cubic meter.
Which sink in wate regular or irregular?

What is the volume of irregular objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
How do you calculate volume for an irregular object?
Partition (or divide) the irregular object into summation of regular objects and then calculate the volume.
What is the volume of irregular shape objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.

How can you determine the voulme of irreagular objects?
Break-up the irregular object into regular objects by dividing the area. Sum the volumes of these regions together.
Is an oblong an irregular or regular?
It is irregular.
What is the correct method for making an accurate measuerment of the volume of a liquid?
Base x Height X Length= Volume
What are the names of the objects which shapes like 2D?
Plane figures. There are infinitely many of them - some regular, others irregular.
Is a pentegon regular or irregular?
Pentagons can be regular or irregular.
