Why are both mass and volume often measured in chemistry investigations?

Because different substances have different densities. For example, if you knew a reaction produced a gas, you could work out what volume this would be, and you could design your apparatus to prevent any pressure build-up. Also, sometimes it is easier to measure liquids by volume in a measuring cylinder or pipette than it would be to put them on a weighing machine. For example, some liquids are unstable when exposed to air, and so it is easiest to measure them by syringe.

How volume is measured?
By multiplying the height the width and the length. In chemistry, you would often measure volume using a burette, pipette, graduated cylinder and beaker (in order from lowest to highest error in reading)

Which tools measure length volume and mass and their units?
-- Length is measured by rulers; they are often wood. -- Volume is measured by measuring cups; they are usually glass. -- Mass is most often measured by a laboratory balance; they are metal.
What dencity is measured in?
Density is measured in mass per volume (kg/cc) or, often in English, weight per volume (pounds/cubic-feet).
What is often measured by glassware in gradations?
Graduated glassware is often used to measure liquid volume.
How can volume be measured in cm3 and ml?
'Dry' volume - is measures in cubic centimetres... 'Wet' volume is measured in millitres.
When measuring fluids for a patient is it measured in cubic centimeters?
It most often is, depending on the fluid and the volume administered. Larger volumes are measured in litres.
How is density calculated from measured data?
mass/volume. most often represented as g/cm3
What is pipette and how is it used in Hindi?
A pipette or chemical dropper is a laboratory tool commonly used in chemistry, biology and medicine to transport a measured volume of liquid, often as a media dispenser.इस वैक्यूम को रिहा करने खींचना और तरल बांटना।
What is the difference in an engine that is 3L or 3.5L?
Engines are often measured by the volume inside their cylinders. This is measured in liters. The difference between a 3L and a 3.5L is simply that the 3.5L has an extra half liter of cylinder volume than the 3L.
