Density is a measure of the mass versus volume of an object. The density of water is 1. That is, 1 liter of water has a mass of one kilogram (it has a weight of 9.81 newtons). Thus, by measuring the displacement of the object in the water, you can find the volume of the object. Then by determining its mass with a balanced scale, you can plug the results into the formula: M/V = D. This will give you the density in kg per liter.

How can you find the mass of water when you have a balance?

okk first find like a tube thingy and find the mass of it on the balance and write it down somewhere then put the water in the tubee and find the mass and write it downn when your donee subtract the mass of the tube from the mass of the tube with water in it and your answerr is the mass of the water ***make sure the tube has no water in it or ANYTHING because it could change the mass okk first find like a tube thingy and find the mass of it on the balance and write it down somewhere then put the water in the tubee and find the mass and write it downn when your donee subtract the mass of the tube from the mass of the tube with water in it and your answerr is the mass of the water ***make sure the tube has no water in it or ANYTHING because it could change the mass


When you use hydrogen gas the water rises in the measuring tube why?

Hydrogen gas (H2) is not very soluble in water, and so it will displace the water in the container, thus making the level rise.


Who discovered density and how did they discover density?

i don't know who but it is about someone who put them self in a bath tube and he noticed the water went up and that is how much density you took up in the world.

Why is a ball given in the gauge glass?

incase if boiler gauge glass breaks...this steel ball fits on the tube and it prevents of leakage of water.


What happens when oil is poured in to u- bend test tube of water?

When oil is poured into a u-tube test tube of water, the oil will separate from the water due to their difference in density. The oil, being less dense, will float on top of the water, creating two distinct layers. This is because oil is hydrophobic and does not mix with water.

What does friction have to do with a cotton ball falling down a tube?

Friction between the cotton ball and the walls of the tube can influence the speed at which the cotton ball falls. More friction means more resistance, which can slow down the cotton ball's descent. If there's less friction, the cotton ball can fall more freely and quickly through the tube.


What is a Density Gradient Tube?

A density gradient is a tube filled with layers of two liquids mixed in varying proportions so that each layer has a different density. It is used by forensic scientists for soil characterization,
