Volume is the amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by an object and has nothing whatsoever to do with the molecular composition of the object. The volume of a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of lead is exactly the same as the volume of a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of butter or a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of anything for that matter. Lead and butter have a great many differences, but volume isn't a measure of any of them.

∙ 14y agoSince butter will occupy more space than an equal weight of lead, I would guess that butter has a greater volume.

Which is denser a kilogram of water or a kilogram of lead?
A kilogram of butter as it is less dense than lead.
Does volume change with melting butter?
Yes, the volume of melted butter is less because the entrained air is released when melted.
Which statements about the ratio of cell surface area to cell volume is are correct?
Larger cells will have a greater surface area-to-volume.
What is the relationship between pressure and volume in liquids.Pressure is directly proportional to the volume. If the volume is greater the pressure also will be greater in liquids. Is it correct?
Yes. That is what is meant by directly proportional.
Molar volume of liquid is greater than molar volume of gas. why?
That's not true. The molar volume of a gas is always greater than the molar volume of a liquid. I can't think of any exceptions to this.
Which has greater weight a kilogram of butter of kilogram of lead what is greater density which has greater volume?
They both weigh the same: 1kg = 1kg. The kg of butter has a greater volume and the kg of lead has a higher density.
Which has the greatest volume a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead?
Butter has greater volume than lead because butter has more mass.
Which has a greater weight a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead which has greater density?
They both weight a kilogram. Lead has a higher density.
Will the volume of lead be greater or less than one gram of water?
The volume of lead will be greater than one gram of water. The density?æof lead is about 11 times more than that of water.?æ
Which has greater volume lead or feathers?
the same
Which has a greater volume lead in water or glass in water?
This depends on the mass.
What has greater volume 1 gram of lead or 1 gram of aluminum?
aluminium
Does water have a greater mass than lead?
water has less density than lead. Mass depends on its volume
Is the buoyant force of water on lead greater than that on iron?
That depends on the amounts, of course - what exactly you are comparing. The buoyant force depends on the volume. For a certain volume of lead, there will be the same buoyant force as for the same volume of iron. On the other hand, since lead has a greater density, the buoyant force on a certain amount of MASS of lead will be less, compared to iron, since the same mass of lead will use up less volume.
Which has a greater volume 1 g of lead or 1 g of water?
It depends on if they are solid or liquid.
Would a kilogram of butter weigh more or a kilogram of lead?
Both would weigh 1 Kilogram with a difference of volume.
Is the volume of gold 20g greater than the volume of lead 10g?
We need to calculate the volume of a metal from the density to be sure. Density of pure gold = 19.3  g·cm-3Density of pure lead = 11.34  g·cm-3The volume of 20 g of gold = mass/density = 20 [g] / 19.3  g·cm-3 = 1.036 cm3 The volume of 10 g of lead = mass/density = 10 [g] / 11.34  g·cm-3 = 0.882 cm3 Hence, the volume of 20 g of gold is slightly greater than that of 10 g of lead. =========================
