Not exactly. Density is the amount of mass per unit volume. In other words, mass divided by volume.
No, mass is not the amount of matter in a given space. It is actually density.
Density since ρ=m/v or in words; density is equal to the mass divided by the volume. i.e. amount of matter in a given space.
Since "amount of matter" is measured as an object's mass and "a given space" is measured as volume, the amount of matter in an a given space should equal mass/volume. Mass divided by volume is an object's density. Acceptable units of density include: grams/liters, kilograms/cubic meters, slugs/cubic inch, slugs/cubic foot, and many others.
Density is the amount of mass in a given volume.The symbol most often used for density is p (the lower case Greek letter rho). Mathematically, density is calculated as mass divided by volume (p = m/V).
The amount of matter is given space is mass.

"density"
Density
The amount of matter in a given volume of space is its D-E-N-S-I-T-Y Its Density NOT Volume!
Density is the ratio between the mass and volume, at a given temperature.
The amount of matter is mass. Volume is the amount of space that matter takes up. The amount of matter in a given volume is density.

They are related, sort of. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter - density is a measurement of the amount of matter in a given amount of space.
Density is the amount of mass in a given volume.The symbol most often used for density is p (the lower case Greek letter rho). Mathematically, density is calculated as mass divided by volume (p = m/V).
The amount of matter is given space is mass.
