Why is volume not always a good way to measure how much mater you have?
Yes, volume is an unreliable measure of the quantity of matter as the same material can have different densities, but the same volume. For example, 1L of ice, water, and steam all contain the same volume of water, but the number of atoms in that volume can vary.
IS the measure of the quantity of matter density?
The units for density are mass / volume; in the SI, that would ideally be kilograms / cubic meter.
Is volume the space occupied by a quantity of matter?
no
How do you measure the density of a metal?
-- Get a pure piece of it. The size of the piece doesn't matter. -- Measure the mass of the piece. -- Measure the volume of the piece. -- The density of the substance is mass of the piece/volume of the piece.
What is the amount of matter that an object has?
Volume
A measure of the quantity of matter that exists in an object?
That would be the volume.

The quantity of matter in a unit volume?
The quantity of matter per unit volume is the density.
Is volume a measure of the quantity of matter?
Volume is not a chemical property of matter. It is actually a physical property of matter. Since volume changes based on the amount of matter, it is an extensive physical property.
A measure of the amount of matter in a given volume?
Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.
The quantity of matter in an object is the object's?
The quantity of matter in an object is called mass.
IS the measure of the quantity of matter density?
The units for density are mass / volume; in the SI, that would ideally be kilograms / cubic meter.
Is volume the space occupied by a quantity of matter?
no
What is the amount of mass packed into a certain volume?
Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.
Why is volume important of water at home?
is the measure of quantity of an object
What instrument measures the quantity of matter?
the quantity of matter can be measured by its volume (a measuring flask), weight (a beam balance), and count (tally). ============================
If the Amount of matter is to mass as amount of space is to?
Volume; mass is a measure of the amount of matter, and volume is a measure of the amount of space.
