So they can determine the density of a substance. Density = mass/volume. Density can be used to identify a substance.
To find the density of an object, you need to measure its mass (using a scale) and its volume (using a ruler, displacement method, or geometric calculations). Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.
There is no unit of measure, and no mechanical device, that can describe or measure both mass and volume.
No, kilograms are not used to measure volume. Kilograms are a unit of mass, while volume is typically measured in units like liters or cubic meters.
Density = (mass) divided by (volume). You must have known that at some level; otherwise, how did you decide that mass and volume were the things to measure, instead of, say, weight and temperature ?
you can measure the mass by putting it on a balance and measure really quickly. the volume you can estimate an approximate answer by putting it in water and measuring its displacement.
Scientists use tools like graduated cylinders, beakers, and volumetric flasks to measure the volume of a substance. They then use scales to measure the mass of the substance. By dividing the mass by the volume, scientists can calculate the density of the material.
The units used in science include .length-meters, mass-grams, volume-liters
common tools scientist use to measure length mass and liquid volumes are as follows. for length tools are rulers,vernier calipers ,circular scale ,etc . for mass tools are beam balances . for volume tools are beaker ,flask,pipette,etc.
mass/volume = density
volume
-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide its mass by its volume. The result is its density.
Density = mass/volume.
They would use density to measure the volume of a substance :)
You MEASURE mass with a balance. You MEASURE volume (if liquid) with a graduated cylinder. Then take these and divide. density = mass divided by volume.
