A metric ruler would be the best bet. Simply measure the length, the width and the height of the box and multiple all three measurements together to find the volume of the box in the unit that you measured the boxes in, cubed.
The volume of a solid is measured in cubic units
You can dip the irregular solid in a water or other suitable liquid. This is how, you can measure the volume of the solid. The mass can be measured by weighing scale. Mass/volume = density. It is easy to measure the mass and volume of the liquid. First measure the mass the container. Then add the liquid to it. You will get the mass of the liquid. Then measure the volume of the liquid. Use the above formula to calculate the density of the liquid.
There are three ways to measure volume. If you are measuring a liquid, you need a graduated cyliner. If you are measuring the volume of a regular solid, you need a ruler to measure length, width, and height. You would then use the formula V=LxWxH. The third way to measure volume is to use displacement to find the volume of an irregular solid. You would put a certain amount of water in a graduated cylinder, write the starting amount down. Add the irregular solid to the graduated cylinder. Record the ending amount of liquid and subtract the ending amount minus the starting amount.
Use water and a cylinder marked with measurements. Use the amount of water displaced to compare the volume/ +++ You can indeed, but if the blocks are small enough to handle and of regular polyhedral form, it may be simpler just to use a rule to measure them directly.
If you submerge the object in a volumetrically-labeled beaker, the volume of water displaced (how much the water rises when the object is submerged), is the volume of the object.Either a graduated cylinder or overflow can is used to measure the volume of an irregular solid by water displacement.
A ruler or tape measure.
yes you can use a balance to measure the volume of an irregular shaped solid.
For mass, you would use a triple-beam balance. For volume, you would either use a graduated cylinder (for liquids), calculate the displacement with a graduated cylinder (for an odd-shaped solid), or calculate it using the equation for volume (for a regularly-shaped solid).
Which lab tool might you use to measure the volume of a liquid?
No,it's a measure of liquid volume
To measure the density of an irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the volume of water displaced when the solid is submerged in a known volume of water. Then, divide the mass of the solid by the volume of water displaced to calculate the density.
The volume of a solid is measured in cubic units
A graduated cylinder.
For the volume you can use a graduated container.
To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.
A graduated cylinder is a tool commonly used to measure volume in science. It is a tall, narrow container with volume markings along its side that allow for precise measurements of liquids.
use a ruler to measure the lenght of each side of the object
