Liquids, like solids have a definite volume. While liquids don't have a definite shape, they can take the shape of a container which can be measured the same way as with solids.
To find the density of a liquid, you must find its mass and volume. To find the mass, use a triple beam balance, put the liquid into a container, weigh it, subtract the weight of the container, and that is how to get the mass. Then, to find the volume, use a graduated cylinder, put the liquid into the container, and then find the mark where the liquid line lands, and that is your volume. Then, divide your mass by your volume, and there is your density in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3).
a gratuated cylinder in which you measure the volume of a liquid(volume same as mass)
Mass is independent of the physical state of the substance.
Water
The mass of liquid is 5.760g - 4.570g = 1.190 grams. The volume is 3.360 millilitres. The density is mass/volume = 1.190g/3.360mL = 0.354166 ~ 0.3542gmL-1.
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.
The mass of a liquid (or anything else) divided by the volume is defined to be its density.
The mass of a liquid and the volume of it are not related, they have no bearing on one another. The mass and volume can change independently, in theory. They are related by the equation to calculate density. Density=Mass/Volume
To find the density of a liquid, you must find its mass and volume. To find the mass, use a triple beam balance, put the liquid into a container, weigh it, subtract the weight of the container, and that is how to get the mass. Then, to find the volume, use a graduated cylinder, put the liquid into the container, and then find the mark where the liquid line lands, and that is your volume. Then, divide your mass by your volume, and there is your density in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3).
Find the volume then divide the mass by the volume.
Mass = Volume x Density
If you know the density and mass of the liquid, you can calculate the volume by dividing the mass by the density. density = mass/volume volume = mass/density mass = density X volume
The mass of a given volume of a liquid is fixed.
We need to know the mass and volume to give you an answer.
An appropriate volume of any liquid will have a mass of 27.6 grams.
volume,weight and mass
The mass of the liquid divided by its volume is its density.
