Why can a spectrophotometer be used to indirectly measure the concentration of a solution?
It can be used indirectly because a "standard" of a known concentration would first have to be run to determine the interaction beteween the choosen wavelength and the compound identity of the analyte.
What is the best way to determine how much of a substance dissolved in water?
Density and specific gravity are often used to measure the relative concentrations of a known solvent and known solute.A Hydrometer is a common device for measuring specific gravity of liquids.
What formula can be used to calculate density?
density = mass divided by volume d = m / v
How can finding the density of a material be useful in identifying the material?
Finding the volume and comparing it to the mass will give you the density, then it is simply a matter of looking up which materials have that density to find what it is. And that is how you can tell how the density can be used
What factor was used to determine conductivity of matter?

Why do scientist measure mass and volume?
So they can determine the density of a substance. Density = mass/volume. Density can be used to identify a substance.
Flotation is a method used by scientists to determine what of a particle of glass?

What examination technique is used to determine the density of a body part?
palpation
Which examination technique is used to determine the density of a body part?
Percussion
How is density calculated and how do scientists use it?
Density is mass divided by volume. Can be used to determine if an object will float in a liquid or not.
