Something to determine volume (like a bucket of water or a ruler), and a balance to determine mass. Divide the mass of the block by its volume to find the density of the block.

What two tools would help you find the density of a block?
A set of scales to weigh it and a container of water big enough to submerse it with some means of measuring the water displaced. Density = weight or mass divided by volume
What is the density of an object that has a mass of 20kg and a volume of 50l?
You would need to defineTemp and pressure to determine the volume of a liter. Then density = kgm/vol
Rectangular Block of Wood in density?
A triple-beam balance can be used. The units could be g/ml the density of a normal wood is 0.88 but a wood block in density can be anything under 1 so it can be 0.95,0.54,etc. waters density is 1 and would can float on water so wood is anything below 1.
How you would use a triple beam balance and a ruler to find the density of the solid a wooden block?
Density (kg/m3) = mass (kg)/Volume (m3) So to find the density of the wooden block, the triple beam balanced is used to calculate the mass and the metre rule is used to measure the height, length and width of the wooden block. Then the volume is calculated by multiplying the thee distances obtained from the ruler. Finally the density is calculated using the equation: Density (kg/m3) = mass (kg)/Volume (m3)
How would you determine the density of an irregular shaped rock?
Not always easy. Since density is defined as the mass of a unit volume of material,you would measure the volume of the rock by putting it into a container half filled with water and then measure the volume change.

on a balance

What steps would you take to determine the density of an egg?
You would first determine the mass of the egg. Then you would need to determine the volume of the egg through water displacement. Then you would need to divide its mass by its volume, and that will give you the density.

If a glass block had two or three chips what would happen to the density measurement?
The density of the glass has not changed, but since air is less dense than glass, the density of the block has decreased.
What is the density of a foam block?
well you have to think you would weigh this using grams so the density of a foam block is "Grams per cubic centimeters"
What steps would you take to determine the density of a rubber eraser?
Determine the mas and the volume.
A wooden block has the dimensions length 100cm width 0.5 and height 50 mm its mass is 50kg what is its density in gcm3to the 0.1?
the density would be 13.5. the density would be 13.5.
How do you determine the density of matter?
Usually you would use the basic definition of "density": just divide mass by volume.
When would it be appropriate to test density?
Density can be used to determine buoyancy. To find out of something will float or sink, density is a good way to make a prediction.
Will a block of wood with a mass of 1000 grams will sink in water?
No. It doesn't matter how heavy a block of wood is, it depends on the density of the wood. Generally wood floats as the density of wood is lighter than the density of the water, so it would float.
Would decreasing the amount of liquid to determine density change the outcome?
No, the amount of a liquid is volume. Density is independent of volume.
