Is Mass a measure of how much density is in a volume of a substance?

No, but they are related. Density = mass / volume. Mass is often informally called the "amount of substance".
It can be measured by its gravitational effects (mass in kilograms or pounds, actually any 'weight'),
or by its inertia (the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest. It is represented numerically by an object's mass).
Better statement would be:
Density is a measure of how much mass is in a certain volume of a particular substance.

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.
Which is defined as the measure of the mass per unit volume of a substance?
That's the "density" of that substance.
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
What makes density?
Density is a measure of the mass of a substance divided by the volume of the substance. D = m/v
How does mass volume density and weight compare?
Density = Mass/Volume is a measure of the amount of matter in a unit volume of a substance. Weight is the effect of gravity acting on a mass.
What would you use to measure density?
The density of a substance is the ratio of its mass to its volume. So, I would measure the mass and volume of a substance to calculate density.
How the density of a substance can be determined?
Measure the mass and volume of the substance, then divide the mass by the volume.
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.
How would you calculate the density of a substance?
Density = Mass/Volume so you need to measure the mass of the substance and divide by the volume that it occupies.
A measure of how much mass there is in a volume of a substance is?
density
Density is a measure of how much what there is in a volume of a substance?
Mass.
What is a measure of a mass of an object in a given volume?
The mass of a substance in unit volume is its density.
Which is defined as the measure of the mass per unit volume of a substance?
That's the "density" of that substance.
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
What makes density?
Density is a measure of the mass of a substance divided by the volume of the substance. D = m/v
How are volume and mass realted?
Directly, they are not as the measure different properties.Combining them can give you the density of a substance. Which is the mass of a given substance in a given volume.
Which term is defined as the measure of the mass per unit volume of a substance?
density
