Mass is typically measured on a weighing device, such as a scale or balance. Volume is measured in a flask, beaker or other type of container.

However since:

M=mass, D=density, V=volume. M=DV

So if you know the density you can weigh the object and determine it's volume. Or you can measure the volume to determine the mass.

Is density measured in grams?

No. Density is measured in grams per cubic centimeter, sometimes written as grams per milliliter.


Why can density be measured either in grams per cubic centimeter or in grams per millililiter?

First, cubic centimeter is the same as milliliter. Second, to indicate density you divide ANY unit of mass by ANY unit of volume. For example, you might use pounds per square foot, solar masses per cubic light-year, etc.
