If you know the density and the volume, you can calculate the mass. This is because
density = mass/volume.

What is the ratio of mass and volume?
The ratio of mass to volume is called density.
Mass plus volume equals?
Time squared over distance. No, it is not "Density". Density is mass divided by VOLUME. Weight is the force of gravity acting on the mass. force = mass * acceleration. Thus, mass/force = 1/acceleration, or, in generic units, time squared over distance. Don't believe every game show answer you hear.
What two properties must be known to calculate the density of a mineral?
mass and volume
How do you determine the density of a granular substance which is insoluble in water?
Using Archimedes principle we can find the density of such object. First let's weigh the body hanging in air using a physical balance. Let it be w1 Now immerse it in water kept in a beaker and weigh once again. Let it be w2. Now using the expression density can be found. Density = w1/ (w1 - w2)
An irregularly shaped gold nugget weighs 24.3g and is found to displace 1.26ml of water. Can it be determined if it is really gold?
You can make a fairly good guess. What the first part of the experiment is designed to do is find the volume of the irregularly shaped nugget. Archimedes is the first to be recorded as offering this solution to finding the volume of an irregularly shaped object. By submerging the object in water, the experimenter can determine the volume of water the object displaces. By knowing the weight of the nugget and the volume of the nugget, and by comparing that to the known density of gold, you can make a fairly good guess as to whether or not it is gold. Let's look. Your nugget displaced 1.26 ml of water. That's 1.26 cubic centimeters of water. The nugget weighs 24.3 grams. Your nugget weighs 24.3 grams per 1.26 cubic centimeters. Divide this out to find the weight per 1 cubic centimeter: 24.3 grams / 1.26 cc = 19.29 grams per cubic centimeter. The density of gold, its weight per unit of volume, can be looked up with ease. As the known density of your nugget is about 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter, which is the known density of gold, there is a strong case for your nugget to be gold.
The amount of mass an object has per its volume is known as .?
Density = Mass/Volume
What is the formula for calculating density if the mass and volume of an object are known?
The object's density = (its mass) divided by (its volume)
How can you find the mass of an object if the volume of the object and the density of the liquid is known?
The law of conservation of mass states mass= density times volumeThe definition of density=mass/volumemultiply the density and the volume! =mass
How can you measure the density of non uniform object.?
it can be measured if the mass of the object is known,,by imerging it into a known density and volume of liquid-like substance like water, now measure the displacement which give clue on it uniform volume. Then divide its mass by its volume. The result is now the the density of the non uniform object.
What devices can you use to find the volume and density of substances?
volume: put the object into a known volume of water and measure the difference (achrimedes) for density divide the volume by the weight
How do you find mass if density and displacement are known?
Measure the amount of liquid that is displaced by the object in question (you will probably need a graduated cylinder). The amount of liquid displaced is the volume of the object. Then, since you have the volume of the object, you can find the mass of the object. Mass=Density x Volume.
What are 2 ways to find the volume of an object?
Derive from measurements of length, breadth, height, radius, diameter etc. Measure the volume of displaced liquid when the object is submerged. If the object is of a material of known density (or specific gravity), weigh it and calculate volume from volume = mass/density.
A 70 kg object with volume of 3x104 cm3 is known to sink in water what is the density of the object?
You should divde the mass of the object by its volume. Better first convert the volume either to cubic decimeters or to cubic meters, to have the density in more standard units.
Is the mass of an object is known how much volume it has?
The volume is the ratio between the mass and the density of a specific material. V=G/d
How do you find volume if density is known?
Volume = Mass/Density
How can you find the mass of an object if the volume is known but not the density?
Without knowing either the mass of an object or its density, it would be impossible to find the mass. There would be two variables and only one equation. Thus, one cannot find the mass of an object solely from its volume.
How the density of a regular and irregular objects determined?
Weigh the object. Determine the volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density. To get the volume of an irregular shaped object can be challenging especially if there are cavities (holes) in it. submersion in a liquid or powder of known volume might be possible. Measure the difference in the volume of the liquid and the liquid + the object (making sure the object is entirely below the surface of the liquid and that any cavities are filled).
