Best Answer

You can't.

Density = (mass) divided by (volume).

That's three numbers.

I order to find any one of them, you have to know the other two.

How do you calculate the volume of an object when you are given only the mass and the density?

density=mass/volume volume=mass/density


How can I find the mass if only the volume and density are given?

Density = (mass) divided by (volume)Mass = (Density) times (volume)


How do you find DENSITY If only mass and volume is given?

You can't. In order to calculate a density, you need a mass and a volume.


How do you find the volume and density if only the mass was given?

You cannot. You can determine the third variable if two are given but not determine two when given only one. You have to find some other way to first determine volume or density.


How do you find the density if only the volume is given?

The formula to find the density is d=m/v


How do you find mass when density is only given?

The relation between mass(M), density(ρ) and volume(V) is given by: M = ρ x V. So mass can be calculated only if both density and volume are known. Density is a measure of amount of substance per unit volume, so mass can't be calculated until the volume of substance is known.


How can you calculate the volume and density with only the mass?

You cannot calculate volume and density with only the mass. If the exact material forming the mass is known, then density can be looked up from a variety of sources and the volume can be calculated as mass divided by density. For example, given only the mass "10 kg" we have no way of knowing the volume or density. However, given "10 kg of gold" we can look up the density (19.3 grams per cubic centimeter) and divide 10,000 by 19.3 to get a volume of 518.13 cc.


How do you find the mass of an object when given the volume?

Volume = mass / density


The amount of matter in a given volume is what?

Mass/volume is called density.


The amount of matter in a given unit volume?

density is mass/volume


How does on find mass when given density and volume?

Multiply them: density*volume = mass


What is the amount of mass in a given volume?

The mass in a given volume can be calculated from the density of the substance. Density = mass/vol so mass = density x volume
