How do you calculate the mass of something?
The mass of a substance can be derived from its density. Density is equal to mass per volume, so if volume is known, divide volume by density to get mass.
How do you calculate the volume in density?
density = mass/volume If you know density and mass, you can calculate the volume by manipulating the density equation such that volume = mass/density. Example: density = 3.57g/cm3 mass = 2.4g volume = ? volume = mass/density = 2.4g/3.57g/cm3 = 0.67cm3
Is height mass or volume?
Height is neither mass nor volume. Height is a measure of how tall something is, mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, volume is a measure of how much space something takes up. Sometimes height is used to find volume. For example, the volume of a box is equal to the length times the width times the height. The height may even be used to help find the mass. For example, if the density of a box is 3 grams per in2, and the width is 2 inches, the length is 2 inches, and the height is 3 inches, the mass would be volume times density, would would be (2 x 2 x 3) x 3, which would be 36 grams.
What is the formula volume equals mass over density for?
it's for finding either the density, mass, or volume of something when given the other two.
How do you calculate the mass of a solution using density and volume?
mass = volume x density. The units, of course, have to be compatible - for example, if the volume is in cubic meters, and the density in kilograms per cubic meter, the mass will naturally be in kilograms.
The amount of space something occupies is called?
The answer is the VOLUME
What is the difference between volume and mass?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, and volume is the amount of space something takes up (example, air takes up space)
What 2 things do you have to measure to find the density of objects?
You need to have the volume and the mass to calculate the density
How do you find the density of something?
you have to know the mass and volume of the object. density equals the mass divided by the volume. if the mass of something was 5 and the volume 1 the density would be 5
How do you use mass and volume to determine density and why is this an important property?
Density is mass divided by volume. It is important because it is a measure of how tightly packed the mass of an object is. For example, density will tell you whether something floats or sinks.
How do you calculate the mass of something using density and volume?
Density = (mass) / (volume) Multiply both sides of the equation by (volume): Mass = (Density) times (volume)
Is the density on earth of an object the same on a spaceship?
Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.

Why is water an example of matter?
You seem to have the view that to be "matter" something has to be solid. This is NOT the case, everything is made of matter which can come in various states :- Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma.
Is density a measure of how much mass and volume is containd in something?
No it is mass divided by volume so for example when u want to figure out density by floating things, anything below the water is a bigger density then 1.00
Is volume anything that has mass?
Volume is the amount of space that something occupies.
What does the volume of something like a cube mean?
volume=mass\density
