Best Answer

Yes, provided you know the density of the substance and the substance can be adequately measured by the cylinder. Because density is the quotient of the mass and volume, the mass is the product of the density and volume. So if you multiply the density and volume (assuming the units match), you will find the mass.

Can you use a graduated cylinder to find which of two objects has a greater mass?

No, you would not use a graduated cylinder to compare the mass of two objects, that would be silly. Graduated cylinders are only useful to measure volume, not mass. Mass is measured with a scale. Chemists usually use a triple beam balance.

Calculate the density of water using a graduated cylinder?

not quite. you can measure volume in a graduated cylinder. you can use a scale, water, and a graduated cylinder to find out the density of an object by filling the graduated cylinder to an easily calculated point (250) then dropping your object in the water making sure none splashes out then measure the difference, then weigh it and divide the mass by volume to get density.
