If the object has a strange form, you may need to take a beaker and fill it with water to a certain level and record it. Then put the object in the beaker so that it is fully submerged. Then find the new level of the water and record it. Now you can take the difference of the two measurements, and you have volume.
If it is a liquid or something that has a normal shape that you can measure, by all means do it the simple way.

How do you find mass when given the density?
Density depends on mass and volume. If you know any two of the three quantities, you can calculate the missing one. If you only know the density, you can't find the mass of a sample until you first measure its volume. Density at times is posted at lb/gal. Multiply the density by the volume in gallons to give you mass.
How do you find volume with only density and mass?
Look up the density of the substance and divide the mass by the density to find volume.============================In order to use the method in the first answer, you must know the substance.But the question says clearly that only the massis given. In that case, it'snot possible to find the volume.
Find the density of a solid?
mass/volume=density
How do you find the density of water if you know the volume?
The density is the ratio between mass and volume.
What is the mass of a pure platinum disk with a volume of 113 with a density of platinum is 21.4?
Density = mass/volume To find mass when density and volume are known, multiply the density times the volume.
What is the first step to find the density of an object?
Find its mass then find its volume. Mass divided by volume equals density; m/v=d
How do you determine relative density of butter?
When you find the relative density of butter, use the formula for density = mass/volume. First find the mass, or weight of the butter, and then divide the butter by its volume.
How do you find volume if density is known?
Volume = Mass/Density
How can you find density of mass of 67.5?
Find its volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density.
How do you find volume when the density and mass are known?
Density = Mass / Volume Rearranging this gives: Volume = Mass / Density Mass = Density × Volume
How do you find density with mass and volume?
mass = density ( )/cm3 multiplied by volume( )cm3
How do you find the mass of an object if you already have the density and volume?
density = mass/volume mass = density x volume
How would you use the density formula to find the volume or mass of a sample?
You have to know two out of three ... mass, volume, density ... then you can find the missing one. If density is missing . . . Density = (mass)/(volume) If mass is missing . . . Mass = (density) x (volume) If volume is missing . . . Volume = (mass)/(density)
How do you find density for a metal?
you first find it's mass by weighing it on a balance and then find it's volume by using water displacement. after finding them, Density=the mass divided by volume D=M/V
How do you find the mass of an object when given the 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)
If you know the density and volume of a substance how could you find its mass?
density is mass divided by /volume so mass is density times volume
