you use the water displacement test. the mass of the displaced water is equal to the mass of the object. because the density of water is one, this means that the volume of the water is equal to the mass of the object

That is only true if the body floats. Two blocks of different metals, but of the same size will displace the same volume of water. Their masses will not be the same.

How do you find the volume of an irregular shape in a graduated cylinder?
Find the density and mass of the object d=m/v and plug in your numbers and solve for volume
What method is used to find the density of an irregular shape object?
First 'weigh" the ojbect on a scale. this gives the mass. 2nd use the water displacement method to find the volume. Then divide Density = mass / volume.
Is it easier to find the mass of an object with a large mass or smaller mass?
Large mass
What is the method called when you want to find the volume of an irregular shaped object?
water displacement
How do you find the volume of an irregular object which floats?
If you push it down, you can measure the volume of the displaced liquid.
How do you find the mass of irregular object show the experiment?
submerge in liquid and measure the displacement
How do you find the mass of an irregular object immersed in water without using a weighing machine?
You cannot.
What tool do you use to measure an irregular object?
To measure the mass on an irregular object, you can use Water Displacement.Water displacement is a way of measuring mass. Materials needed for this are:A graduated cylinderWaterVariable (Irregular Object).Fill the graduated cylinder with a certain amount of water. Memorize it.Put the irregular object into the graduated cylinder. Find the mass by subtracting the first amount of water from the second. That's your mass.Hope this helps, and sorry if you didn't need all this information!
What happens to the mass of the water in an irregular object?
Nothing
How do you find the density of an irregular shaped object that sinks?
Measure the volume of the object which is same as the volume of the displaced liquid in which that sinks. And measure the mass of the same object from a weighing machine. then use density = mass/volume
What is a mesuring cylinder for in science?
The use of measuring cylinder is to know the perfect mass of an irregular object and to find the volume of a liquid

How do you find the mass of an object when you are given the volume and density of the object?
You can find the mass of the object by multiplying volume and density.
How do you find volume of an irregular shape object?
You use disfigurasation
