not quite. you can measure volume in a graduated cylinder. you can use a scale, water, and a graduated cylinder to find out the density of an object by filling the graduated cylinder to an easily calculated point (250) then dropping your object in the water making sure none splashes out then measure the difference, then weigh it and divide the mass by volume to get density.
It could sink. (The metal's density is greater than water.) It could turn into a ball of flames. (If you dropped a chunk of sodium into graduated cylinder, it would react with flames or sparks.)
graduated cylinder
Because density equals mass over volume which equals mass divided by volume. It doesn't matter what the volume in the graduated cylinder is but when you subtract just the volume of the graduated cylinder, you subtract the two. Then you find the mass and volume which should be the same divide them and the answer is one! ONE IS ALWAYS THE ANSWER
density = mass/volume → The density of the rock is the mass of the rock divided by the difference in the volume from before the rock was dropped in and afterwards. Its units are grams/ml

34.5/19.3=1.79mL (19.3 is the density of gold)
A gallon is a measure of volume. Volume can be measured by using one of the 2 most common methods: water displacement or a graduated cylinder.
fill a graduated cylinder half way up. then drop it in. see how much the water has rose. this is your density. this is also called water displacement
You need to do the water displacement method. The water displacement needs a graduated cylinder and water.
This would make the experimental results for density erroneously higher.
a graduated cylinder and water to find the volume and also balance to find the mass, then you divide
Graduated Cylinder - Marbles
A graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume, or capacity of water. Or to just measure Water.
The volume of the piece of metal is measured by the difference in the volume of water in the graduated cylinder before and after the piece of metal is placed in the cylinder. This is stated to be 36 - 20 = 16 mL. Density is defined to be mass per unit volume. Therefore, for this piece of metal the density is 163/16 = 10 g/mL. (Only two significant digits are justified, because the is the number of significant digits in the limiting datum 16.)
You can use a graduated cylinder to measure an object's volume.Fill the cylinder with water up to some convenient mark that's deeper than the object, and notethe volume of water in the cylinder. Than immerse the object in the water in the cylinder and notethe volume again. The difference between the two volume readings is the volume of the object.In my house, we have graduated cylinders which we refer to as our "measuring cups".
During any scientific procedure liquid anything is generally measured in milliliters, in a graduated cylinder.
