Best Answer

Take three identical bottles. Fill one with air, one with water, and one with stones.

The volumes of all three bottles are the same, but their weights are different, because

they contain different masses.

Different substances can easily have different masses in the same volume. That's why

the concept of "density" is so useful.

yeah. a substance like water or whatever could fill a volume of 100 Ml for example, and only weigh 100 grams, or it could be like lead and weigh 500 grams and have a bigger mass.

Yes, and this is a product of the different densities that substances may have. For instance, equal volumes of gold and water have different masses due to their differences in mass.

No; it depends on their densities.

For instance, water has a density of 1 g/L, while mineral oils typically have a density of 0.8 g/L.

Yes.

Their densities (specific gravities) are the same.

How many milliliter per gram?

ml is a measure of volume, and grams are a measure of mass, so they really are not comparable. However, a ml of pure water has a mass of one gram. Different substances will have different masses.


If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have?

If two solids have the same masses but different volumes they have different densities.


How are calculating the densities of regular or irregular substances different?

Regular- Find masses the same way. Volume- Regular-Height times length times width Volume- Irregular- Look up displacement on the internet. Density- Divide mass by volume. These are basic facts.


Is it possible for two substances of the same volume to have a different mass but the same density?

No


How do two objects with indentical volumes can have different densities?

Since density=Mass/volume. If 2 solutions have the same volumes, they would have different densities because their masses are different. More explanations. For example same volume of aluminum and iron would have different mass because the atomic mass of aluminum is comparatively less than that of iron. Aluminium has nearly mass 27 amu where as iron has 56 amu. The crystalline structure would bring the atoms with different lattice distances and so the density would differ. Answer Objects of same volume have different density because as Density is equal to mass over volume so according to this relation volume and density are inverseley propotional to each others so when we increase volume density decrease so two solutions can have same volume and different densities.

How gram is equal to 1 spoon?

A spoon is a measure of volume. Different substances have different densities so that the same volume of two substances can have very different masses.


When you compare masses of the same volume of different substances you are doing what?

Comparing density


Is density the volume of equal masses of substances?

yes


How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?

Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)

Could two subjects with the same volume have different masses?

Definitely. Let's be a little unscientific for a moment. Let's say you had a 1 cup measure(volume). If you fill the cup with cotton the mass would be different from a cup filled with lead.The difference is the density of the substances in question


Can two objects with the same volume have different masses if so why?

Yes they can, if they have different densities.


How can the volume of two substances be the same but the mass be different?

They have different densities.


What has a greater density 0.8 or 0.7?

The answer depends on what the numbers measure. If they are the masses of equal volumes of substances, then the substance with mass 0.8 is denser. On the other hand, if the numbers refer to the volumes of equal masses of two substances, then the substance with volume 0.7 is denser.


How can a gallon of milk can have different density than a gallon of water even though it has the same volume?

Though they have same volume,they have different masses.
