Density is the amount of mass in a given volume.
The symbol most often used for density is p (the lower case Greek letter rho). Mathematically, density is calculated as mass divided by volume (p = m/V).

Is the density the amount of space in a given mass?
Not exactly. Density is the amount of mass per unit volume. In other words, mass divided by volume.
If the Amount of matter is to mass as amount of space is to?
Volume; mass is a measure of the amount of matter, and volume is a measure of the amount of space.
What is the amount of matter in a given space called?
Since "amount of matter" is measured as an object's mass and "a given space" is measured as volume, the amount of matter in an a given space should equal mass/volume. Mass divided by volume is an object's density. Acceptable units of density include: grams/liters, kilograms/cubic meters, slugs/cubic inch, slugs/cubic foot, and many others.
Is mass the amount of matter in a given space?
No, mass is not the amount of matter in a given space. It is actually density.
What is the amount of matter is given space?
The amount of matter is given space is mass.
What is the amount of matter given in volume?
The amount of matter is mass. Volume is the amount of space that matter takes up. The amount of matter in a given volume is density.
What is the amount of matter in a certain amount of space?
The amount of matter in a given volume of space is its D-E-N-S-I-T-Y Its Density NOT Volume!
Is the density the amount of space in a given mass?
Not exactly. Density is the amount of mass per unit volume. In other words, mass divided by volume.
If the Amount of matter is to mass as amount of space is to?
Volume; mass is a measure of the amount of matter, and volume is a measure of the amount of space.

What are mass and volume?
Mass amount of matter in an object; given in units such as gramsVolume amount of space occupied by matter; milliliters (mL) and liters (L) are common units of volume
What is the densty of the outer core?
the amount of matter in a given space; mass per unit volume
How is the mass of an object different from its volume?
Volume is a measurement of the amount of space an object occupies. Volume is calculated by knowing the Height, Width and Length (or similar measurements). Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object. When the object is in the vicinity of another mass, an object that has more mass will weigh more.
The difference between volume and mass?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Volume the amount of space an object has.
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its mass or volume?
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its volume. Mass is the amount of metter in a body whereas volume is the amount of space a body occupies.
Does density describe the amount of mass contain in a certain space?
Density is the ratio between the mass and volume, at a given temperature.
The amount of space something occupies is called?
The answer is the VOLUME
