A liquid's volume is measured in a graduated cylinder, while a solid with a irregular shape must be measured by: 1. Filling a graduated cylinder of an appropriate size with water
2. record the volume of the water
3. submerge the solid completely in the water in the graduated cylinder
4. record the new volume level of the water
5. subtract the original volume level from the second volume level to determine the volume of the solid.

What is a ounces?

Ounces are a unit of measurement that can measure either solids or liquids. When measuring solids, there are 16 ounces in a pound. In terms of liquids, an ounce is 1/20 of a pint or 1/128 of a gallon.

The unit for density is kg m-3.


Can you use the same measuring cup when measuring ingredients for pastry?

Yes, but you should measure solids before measuring liquids. If you, for example, measure water before measuring flour, the flour will stick to the measuring cup.


What is the difference between measuring a solid than a liquid?

With liquids you can just stick in a thermometer into it. But with solids sometimes you can't do that (because it's solid obviously) so I guess measuring liquids is more accurate in most cases.

What are the tests to identify both unknown solids and unknown liquids?

For unknown solids, tests may include measuring density, melting point, boiling point, and conducting a flame test. For unknown liquids, tests may include measuring density, boiling point, refractive index, and conducting solubility tests with different solvents. Additional tests such as spectroscopy or chromatography may also be used to identify unknown solids and liquids.

How are measurements of volume for solids and liquids alike?

Measurements of volume for both solids and liquids involve determining the amount of space that the substance occupies. This is typically done using measuring tools such as a graduated cylinder for liquids and a ruler or geometric formulas for solids. The volume of a solid or liquid is usually expressed in cubic units such as cubic centimeters or milliliters.
