How can you obtain an objects volume if you know its density and its mass?

You just need to rework the density formula:
D = M / V, where D is density, M is mass, and V is volume.
So all you need to do is put in the Density and Mass and solve for V:
D = M / V
D * V = M
V = M / D
And so our volume becomes Mass divided by Density.

∙ 12y agoDensity = mass/volume (definition)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 'volume' :
Volume x density = mass
Divide each side by 'density' :
Volume = mass/densityWiki User

Wiki User
∙ 14y agoWe know that the mass of the object = the density*the volume.
Therefore the volume = mass/density.

Volume (v)
Mass (m)
d=m/v
v=m/d
m=dv
Therefore since v=m/d,
divide mass by density to find the volume.

The density equation can be manipulated to solve for mass and volume as follows:
Mass = density x volume
Volume = mass/density

If the density and volume of an object is known what can also be found?
If you know the density and the volume, you can calculate the mass. This is becausedensity = mass/volume.
How is the volume of a liquid calculated?
If you know the density and mass of the liquid, you can calculate the volume by dividing the mass by the density. density = mass/volume volume = mass/density mass = density X volume
How can you convert among the count mass and volume of something?
To convert between mass and volume you need the density of the substance. Density = mass/volume. It is not clear what you mean by count. If you are thinking of large scale objects then if they are all alike, you can convert mass to count if you know the mass of one of them. I wonder if you are thinking of chemical quantity expressed in moles? The conversion in this case is moles = mass/molar mass.
What is the volume of graphite?
The volume of graphite is dependent on its mass and density. You can calculate it only if you know the sample's mass and density. The same goes for any other substance or object.
If density equals mass divided by volume then what does volume equal?
mass equals density times volume and volume equals mass divided by density think of it as an triangle cover up the part you want to know and voila the answer. M --------- D X V D=Density V=Volume M=Mass X=Times --=Divide
How can you obtain an objects volume if you know it's density and mass?
Density equals mass over volume. Set up the equation and solve for volume.
How can you obtain density if you don't know the mass or volume?
You cannot.
What are two properties you must know to determine density?
You can obtain density by dividing mass / volume.
What two pieces of information do you need to measure an objects' density?
you need to know its mass (weight) and volume; density is mass/volume
What determines the mass of objects that have equal volume?
Density. This is quantified as a mass over a volume, so if you know the volume, the density will allow you to determine the mass of an object. Density equals mass divided by volume so mass is equal to density multiplied by volume.
To find the mass of a rectangular object you multiply the objects length width and height?
A rectangular prism has a volume that can be found by multiplying the object's length width and height. To obtain the mass one must also know the density of the object and multiply that by the volume.
How do you work out the mass of an object with the density and the volume?
Density = (Mass) divided by (Volume) If you know the density and volume, then Mass = (Density) times (Volume)
What lab equipment would you need to measure the density of a piece of metal?
To obtain the density you need to know the mass, and the volume of the object.So you'd have to weigh it using a balance to obtain the mass.The easiest way to measure the volume (particularly if it's an irregular shape) would be via the displacement of water.density = mass / volume
What is the density of the mass of 57.33g?
You will like to know the volume of the mass. Mass / volume will give you density. You can not know the density without mass and volume of the substance.
What is the formula for volume when you know the mass and the density?
volume = Mass * density
How does one obtain the mass of a liquid such as water?
D = M/V density = mass/volume to solve for one unknown, you need two knowns...so if you know the density and volume, you can calculate weight. the density of water is 1ish, so in that case the weight would be equal to the volume.
How do you calculate the mass of an object if you know the volume and density?
density = mass/volume mass = density x volume
