Volume is a measure of how much space an object takes up. In some cases, such as a cube, it's easy to use a ruler to measure all the sides and multiply.
If such an option is not readily available, there are other alternative ways of collecting the volume. For instance, to see how much space an object takes up, you could measure how much water it displaces.

What tools would you use t measure volume and mass of a solid?
To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.
Can you use a balance to measure the volume irregularly shaped solid?
yes you can use a balance to measure the volume of an irregular shaped solid.
Can you use milliliters to measure a solid?
No,it's a measure of liquid volume
When is ml the preferred unit to use to for volume?
When you are measureing smaller units you would use mL
What tool do you use to measure the volume of a rectangular solid?
A ruler or tape measure.
What measurement tool do you use to measure volume?
For mass, you would use a triple-beam balance. For volume, you would either use a graduated cylinder (for liquids), calculate the displacement with a graduated cylinder (for an odd-shaped solid), or calculate it using the equation for volume (for a regularly-shaped solid).
How do you measure the density or weight of irregular solid?
To measure the density of an irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the volume of water displaced when the solid is submerged in a known volume of water. Then, divide the mass of the solid by the volume of water displaced to calculate the density.
What is the unit with which we can measure the volume of a solid?
The volume of a solid is measured in cubic units
What measure the volume of large irregular solid?
To measure the volume of a large irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then submerge the irregular solid in the water and measure the change in water level. The difference in water level will indicate the volume of the irregular solid.
How will you measure volume of irregular solid?
use a ruler to measure the lenght of each side of the object
What pieces of lab equipment measure volume?
There are three ways to measure volume. If you are measuring a liquid, you need a graduated cyliner. If you are measuring the volume of a regular solid, you need a ruler to measure length, width, and height. You would then use the formula V=LxWxH. The third way to measure volume is to use displacement to find the volume of an irregular solid. You would put a certain amount of water in a graduated cylinder, write the starting amount down. Add the irregular solid to the graduated cylinder. Record the ending amount of liquid and subtract the ending amount minus the starting amount.
What would you use to measure the volume of a toy chest?
You would use a tape measure.
