Will objects of larger mass always have more volume than objects of smaller mass?

No, you also need to know the object's density. An easy example of this is the difference between 50 g of feathers and 50 g of lead - the lead will have a much lower volume than the feathers because lead has a higher density than feathers.

∙ 11y agoWell, think for a moment about a purple party balloon inflated until it's 1-foot across.
Now, compare that to the round purple rock in your back yard that's 1-foot across.
Their masses are different.
I know you won't have an opportunity to check this out, but take my word for it:
One cup of gold has 19.3 times as much mass as one cup of water has.

The volume is the ratio between the mass and the density of a specific material.
V=G/d The mass is determined by the volume and density.

∙ 11y agoWhat weighs more: A ton of lead or a ton of feathers?
Let's look at what weight is.
Weight is defined as a function of mass and gravity.
So a 120lb person on Earth would weigh 20lb on the Moon. The reason, is that although their mass has stayed the same, the gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of the Earth.
So the weight of an object depends on the mass of the object and the gravity acting upon it.
The volume has nothing to do with it.

∙ 13y agoIn terms of the rather wishy-washy word "large", you might get away with that statement.
But the term itself is one that means different things to different people in different contexts ...
a small airplane is much bigger than a large mosquito, and a small pond is bigger than
a large beer.
To tighten up the discussion a bit ... it's not true at all that the larger an object is,
the more mass it has.
For example ... (we worked this out just now, especially for you) ...
A piece of gold the size of an ice cube ( 2 in3) has the same mass as
about 936 gallons of helium ! That's a cube about 5 feet on a side.
================================
Gold . . . 19.3 gm/cc
He (STP) . . . . 0.1786 gm/L
1 gal = 231 in3

∙ 13y agoI guess it would depend on its density, a balloon could have great volume and little mass and iron could have small volume and great mass

How does an objects volume affect buoyancy?
If the mass stays the same, then when an object gets larger, its density decreases. The larger density=the more bouyancy
Can the volume of ice smaller than the water's?
No, the volume of ice cannot be smaller than the water.
Does gas have mass and take up space?
The short answer is yes, gas has mass and density. However, you should note that gas is a state of matter, just as solid and liquid are. Since all matter has mass, any substance in its gaseous state has mass. Since all matter occupies space, it has density, since density is defined as mass per unit volume, where volume is space. Larger objects dont always have more mass than smaller objects.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?
Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)
If you have two equally sized objects how could you tell which one is more dense?
Compare their weights on scale's have to select scales depending on the size of the objects to find a objects density divide the objects mass by its volume.
Does larger things have smaller volume compared to smaller things?
no larger things can have higher volume
If the volume of the smaller rectangular box is 27 in what is the volume of the larger rectangular box?
If the volume of the smaller rectangular box is 27 in3, what is the volume of the larger rectangular box?
That a larger volume of liquid will always evaporate faster than a smaller volume?
evaporation speed is determined by temperature, humidity and exposed surface area
What is the number of 4 cm cubes which can be cut from the solid cube whose edge is 32 cm?
Edge of the larger cube = 32 cm Volume of the larger cube = (32 cm)3 = 32768 cm3 Edge of the smaller cube = 4 cm Volume of the smaller cube = (4 cm)3 = 64 cm3 Since the smaller cubes are cut from the larger cube, volume of all of them will be equal to that of the larger cube. ∴ Total number of smaller cubes × Volume of the smaller cube = Volume of the larger cube ⇒ Total number of smaller cubes = Volume of the larger cube ÷ Volume of the smaller cube ⇒ Total number of smaller cubes = 32768 ÷ 64 = 512 Thus, 512 smaller cubes can be cut from the larger one.
Does larger things have smaller volume?
No. Larger things usually have larger volumes.
Do gases keep the same volume?
Usually not. They can easily expand into a larger volume, or be compressed into a smaller volume.
What are cubic centimeters used for?
usually for measuring the volume of smaller objects
Which among man and woman has the highest percentage of blood and why?
Larger humans always have more blood than smaller humans. They need a larger volume to feed and oxygenate their many more cells.
What units can be used to expressed the volume of a solid?
In metrics, the units of measurement used to express the volume of smaller objects would be the liter, deciliter, centiliter and milliliter. The English system of measurement uses gallons, quarts, pints, and cups to express the volume of smaller objects.
What is the ratio of the volume of the larger cube to the smaller cube?
It is (S/s)3 where S and s are the lengths of the sides of the larger and smaller cubes, respectively.
What is ture about mass and volume for all floating objects?
The mass is always less than the volume
Is the sun's volume smaller than the earth's volume?
No, it's much, much larger, by a factor of around a million.
