How do you find the density of a liqiud?

Answer:The formula is:D=M/V(Density equals mass divided by volume)It is the same type of thing for Mass and Volume:M=D(V)(Mass equals Density multiplied by Volume)V=M/D(Volume equals Mass divided by Density)


How can convert volume to mass?

You have to know the density of the material, and the density equation, Density = mass/volume. Manipulate the equation to Mass = density x volume.


If you add water to sand does the volume density and mass change?

Yes because the sand adds more mass to the mass of the water, therefore the density and volume also change


Any object that has a mass and a volume?

Could asker add further clarification to this query? Mass = volume * density if this helps


Mass plus volume equals?

Time squared over distance. No, it is not "Density". Density is mass divided by VOLUME. Weight is the force of gravity acting on the mass. force = mass * acceleration. Thus, mass/force = 1/acceleration, or, in generic units, time squared over distance. Don't believe every game show answer you hear.


Does flattening a block affect mass volume and density?

It will not affect mass because the mass of an object stays the same (unless you take away or add mass). It will affect volume and density. Since the object is being flattened so it takes up less space, its volume is smaller. But since it is the same amount of matter just in a smaller space, the density is greater. Basically, volume and density are inversely related (in respect to mass). With mass staying the same, as the volume decreases, the density increases.


How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?

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.


Is the density of an object equal to it's mass per unit volume?

An object's density is inversely proportional to the object's volume. As the volume increases the density decreases, and vice versa.


What is the accepted value of density for lead?

Density= Mass/VolumeAlso, you could determine the Volume by filling a beaker up with any amount of water and record the amount. Drop the piece(s) of lead in the water and record the new amount in the beaker. Subtract the new reading by the old reading and this is your volume. To find mass just weigh the piece(s) of lead in grams and this is you mass, then plug your measurements into the equation above.It might sound complicated, but it is really easy, if you have the scale and beaker.


How do you determine the density of a rock 5 grams and 1 milliliter?

The same way you determine the density of any other object. Divide the mass by the volume. Add: density = mass/volume = 5g/1mL = 5g/mL = 5g/cm3* *1mL = 1 cm3


How do you calculate the bulk density of pellets?

Mass divided by volume. Weigh the pellets to find the mass, then add the pellets to a measuring cylinder of water (or something of higher density than your pellets) and find the volume using the rise of water in the measuring cylinder


Will a boiled egg float if you add salt to water?

Yes, it will eventually. When you add salt to water, you are increasing the density of the solution, but not the volume, because the salt dissolves (dissociates). Since density is mass divided by volume, there is a direct relationship between the solution's mass and its density. They increase together even as the volume remains constant. An egg will float in a salt solultion if the molarity is about 2.5 or above.
