How is density different than mass?
Mass is the amount of substance an object can have
What is the mass of you if you weigh 115 pounds?
Your mass is defined by the amount of substance in your body in the gravitational field of the earth. If your mass is 115 lb then it will be the same elsewhere. Your weight however, may change.
What is the amount of space an object takes up called?
By definition, volume is the space that an object occupies, or takes up. In Chemistry, volume is often measured in gallons, liters, or milliliters.
How do you calculate the mass of an object?
the mass of an object measures the amount of matter in a object.
What is the Formula for finding density of an 3D object?
Density of an object is defined as (mass)/(volume).
What is the Mass of an object divided by amount of substance?
(Mass) divided by (Volume) is defined as the density of the sample or object.
What is the amount in an object or substance?
The amount [of stuff] in an object or substance is its mass.
What is the true definition of mass?

What is the amount of substance in a given volume?
That can refer either to the mass, or to the amount of moles.
What is difference between mass and weight?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object or substance. Weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object/substance. Mass will not change; the amount of matter will not fluctuate due to gravitational forces, so something that has a mass of 4 grams on earth will have a mass of 4 grams on the moon. But because the force of gravity is different, the weight of an object on the earth will weigh differently than the same object on the moon.
Density is the?
Density is the amount of mass that can fit into a given volume within an object or substance.
What is the amount of material in a object called?
