So they can determine the density of a substance. Density = mass/volume. Density can be used to identify a substance.

What do you use to measure how much stuff is in a specified volume of a substance scientist use?

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.

How do you find an objects density?

-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide its mass by its volume. The result is its density.


How do you you measure density?

Density = mass/volume.

They would use density to measure the volume of a substance :)


How do you calculate mass and volume to get density?

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.


Which will you measure first volume or mass?

What 2 things do you have to measure to find the density of objects?

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.
