In determining volume by displacement why is it important that there are no air bubbles adhering to the solid?
It affects the volume of the sample. Your results will be affected because volume is the factor you are trying to determine. Air bubbles displace water just like anything else.
Can water displacement find the volume of substances?
Water displacement can accurately find the volume of substances as it represents the same amount of space or volume. An object placed into the water will displace the same amount of water volume as its own volume.
If you pour water into a wide shallow dish will more solid dissolve?
This depends on the volume of water.
What problem would you have if you tried to displace water to find the volume of a sugar cube?
The problem you would have is that the sugar cube would not be at its regular size so to solve that you would have to put the water in first and then put the sugar cube in it. After that is done then record the volume the sugar starrts to melt into the water.
Why is water an example of matter?
You seem to have the view that to be "matter" something has to be solid. This is NOT the case, everything is made of matter which can come in various states :- Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma.
Would a solid object with a volume of 1 liter displace 1000 ml of water?
Yes
Do objects of the same volume displace the same amount of water?
Yes, if all of the objects have the same amount of volume they will displace the same amount of water!
What will happen to a solid object made from water with great density than water when it is dropped into water?
It will depend on the shape of the object. The density of the object does not matter, what matters is the mass of the volume of water that it will displace.
How do you find volume using water displacement?
displace it
How do you find the volume of an egg?
Fill a cup to the brim with water. Put egg in water (it should sink), capturing all of the overflow of water. Measure volume of water. This volume will match the egg's volume. Sinking objects displace volume, floating objects displace mass.
What happen when you mix of solids or liquid in a given volume of water?
Place a solid (that won't dissolve) in water and the solid will displace its weight, causing the water level to rise proportionally. Add a pint of liquid to a pint of water and you should have 2 pints of liquid in solution.

When is displacement used?
It is used to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object. An object dropped into a volume of water will displace an equal volume of water.
Why does the hull of a ship contain a large volume of air?
The shape of the ships hull causes the ship to displace a greater volume of water then a solid piece of steel with the same mass. A ship displaces a volume of water equal in weight to the submerged portion of the ship. Hope this helps!

How do you measure the volume irregular solid?
You place it in water to see the volume of water it displaces. Fill a large, graduated measuring cylinder to about halfway with water (say to 50mL) Put the irregular solid in, and measure the volume it reads (solid + water). (say it reads 80mL) So the volume of the irregular solid will be: volume(solid+water) - volume(water). For example, the volume of the water was 50mL, and when the solid was added, the volume increased to 80mL. The volume of the solid would be 80mL - 50mL. So it would be 30mL.
What is the formula for finding the volume of a irregular solid?
Eureka!There really isn't a "formula" for discovering the volume of an irregularly shaped solid. Instead, submerge the irregular solid in water and measure the volume of water it displaces to discover its volume. The ExperimentFor finding the volume of an irregular solid we just fully dip (submerge) it in a water tank which is fully filled with water and is attached to an another tank (a cylindrical overflow tank) through a pipe. With the setup in place, we put the solid into the full tank. The solid will displace water, which will flow through the pipe into the overflow tank. Further, the volume of the water the solid displaces will be equal to the volume of that irregular solid. Now we calculate the volume of water in the overflow tank using the depth of that water and the diameter of the tank. The volume of the displaced water will equal the volume of the irregularly shaped solid.There will generally not be a formula and the volume will have to be measured in some other way.
