How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?

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.


How do you calculate the volume of an irregular object?

The volume of a solid object such as a rock or pebble can be determined by submerging it in a liquid in a graduated cylinder or other container. The difference in the volume of the liquid is the volume of the object.


How is h fusion used to calculate the energy required to vaporize a volume of liquid?

The heat of fusion is used to first convert the volume of liquid to its solid form, then the heat of vaporization is used to convert the solid to vapor. By summing the two energy values, you can calculate the total energy required to vaporize the liquid volume.


How does the word displacement apply to indirect measurement of volume?

Volume is difficult to calculate mathematically in a complex shape. Immersing an object in a liquid pushes out a volume of that liquid equal to the volume of the object. The result is called displacement because the solid displaces the liquid.


Has a definite volume and shape?

Liquid


How a liquid and a solid different?

A solid has a fixed volume and form. A liquid has a fixed volume but has the form of a container. A gas has not a fixed volume or form.


What is the difference between the methods of finding density of liquid than finding the density of solid?

A solid has air gaps. Density is mass per volume. Volume of the known mass of solid is determined by displacement of liquid in which the solid is insoluble. In case of liquid, the mass of known volume of liquid is determined.


Does a liquid have definite volume?

Liquid has a definite volume in a container.


What is the scientific unit for the volume of a solid and a liquid?

cubic centimeter for a solid and liter for a liquid


How the process of measuring the volume of a liquid different from the process of measuring the volume of a solid?

Because liquid and solid are two different things


How can you tell one state of matter from another?
