What is density of petrol at 25 degree Celsius and 30 degree Celsius?
Exactly the way you measure the density of anything else. -- Procure a clean, representative sample of the substance, any size. -- Measure the mass of the sample. -- Measure the volume of the sample. -- Take the numbers out of the laboratory and back to your cubicle. -- Divide the sample's mass by its volume. -- The quotient is the density of the substance.
