How do you find density of an irregular shape?
Measure the displacement of water when the object is submerged in water. This gives the volume ; then weigh the object and divide the weight by the volume to get the density.
What state of matter has a definite shape but not a definite volume?
There is no such state of matter. Solid has a definite shape and volume, liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
What changes shape but doesn't change volume?
A gas can change shape but it doesn't change volume, a liquid also changes shape but doesn't change volume.
Does a crumpled piece of aluminum foil into a ball would the mass weight volume and density increase or decrease from what it was?
All that has changed is the shape.
What determines the shape and volume of a gas in a continer?
Gas doesn't have a shape or volume of itself. Gas will take the internal shape and volume of whatever container you put it in.
How do you calculate weight of hexagon?
There is no connection between weight and shape; a hexagon can be any weight. Studied as a theoretical concept in geometry, they have no weight.
What has no shape or volume it has weight but you cannot see it?
Air.
Does weight of liquid varies with shape of container?
No. THe weight is set by the volume, not by what vessel it's in.
How do you calculate the density of a polyurethane foam?
Density is weight divided by volume. Measure the weight (with a scale), calculate the volume (which is easy to do if the foam is rectangular in shape - you might even want to cut out a rectangular piece, if your foam has an irregular shape), and divide the weight by the volume.
How is mass and volume determined density?
If the object has a regular shape, like a cube or sphere, its volume can be calculated readily from solid geometry. Weight divided by volume gives density. For an irregular shape, one trick for finding volume is to submerge it in a calibrated container of water. The amount of increase in the volume of the water is the volume of the object. * * * * * Mosttly correct but density = mass/volume not weight/volume. Mass is not the same as weight.
How do you know which objects are more dense or less dense?
Density is weight divided by volume. Weight is measured with a scale. Volume can be calculated if an object has a regular shape, using basic geometry, but if it has an irregular shape, it can be calculated using a graduated cylinder.
What has volume and shape?
A solid has a volume and a shape a liquid has a volume but no certain shape a gas has no certain volume and no certain shape
Which state of matter doesn't have a definite volume or shape?
liquid has no definite shape and a solid has no definite shape or volume
What are the 2 certain things gas doesn't have like volume?
Definite shape and definite weight.
How can shape and volume classify materials?
- solids have a shape and a volume- liquids have a volume but not a shape- gases haven't shape or volume (in free form)
What the volume and shape of solid?
It has a fixed shape and volume
Does ozone have a shape or volume?
No, it doesn't. It does not have a shape or volume.
