I presume that you are trying to find the volume of an irregular solid. It is usual to tie a piece of thin cotton around the solid prior to lowering it into the measuring cylinder. This is so that you can control the decent of the object, i.e. it is not dropped into the cylinder causing the water to splash out, thus not giving an accuarate value for volume of the solid.
To determine the density of a solid like a piece of wood, you can measure its mass using a scale and then measure its volume by displacement or geometric measurement. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the wood.
A piece of paper is considered a solid because its particles are closely packed together in a fixed position, giving it a definite shape and volume. The intermolecular forces between the particles in the paper are strong enough to maintain the solid state under normal conditions.
The state of matter is actually to states of matter. Solid and liquid are the states of matter that have a volume,(liquid) and shape(solid).
The volume of the irregular solid can be found by measuring the displaced water, which is 5ml. This means the volume of the irregular solid is also 5ml.
the block is a solid becaus it has a definite shape

Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.

Yes, a solid does not occupy less sapce when it is pressed or squeezed. It cannot be compressed. The volume of a solid does not change. A solid has a fixed or definite volume.
The volume of a solid depends on the temperature.

If the pieces came from a solid object of uniform density then the ratio is the same for each piece. But if not, the ratios need to be calculated separately.
Yes you can.You can measure the solid by putting it into a gradruated cylinder.The height of the water shows you how much volume the solid has. fun is at www.qyue.webs.com
You place it in water to see the volume of water it displaces. Fill a large, graduated measuring cylinder to about halfway with water (say to 50mL) Put the irregular solid in, and measure the volume it reads (solid + water). (say it reads 80mL) So the volume of the irregular solid will be: volume(solid+water) - volume(water). For example, the volume of the water was 50mL, and when the solid was added, the volume increased to 80mL. The volume of the solid would be 80mL - 50mL. So it would be 30mL.
The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be measured by placing the solid in a known quantity of water in a container with measurement markings. Take the new volume and find the difference between this and the old volume. This is the volume of your irregularly shaped solid.
