Any volume of non-vacuum anything has mass.
Any mass has volume.
Both mass and volume have an 'm' in the word.
Other than that, they are not at all the same thing.

How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
Why can two objects with the same mass and volume have the same density?
the volume could be different that could lead to the same density. For example: d=m/v so you would have a mass of 10 for compound A and a mass of 5 for compound B, and the volume of compound A is 2 and the volume of compound B has a volume of 1. Therefore both densities equal 5.
What is mass divided by its volume?
Any extensive quantity divided by volume is called that quantity density .A baby's mass is small, a baby's volume is small ; but its average mass density (mass divided by volume) is the same as for anyone - anyone composed of the same materials, in the same fractions.
Is volume and mass the same thing?
No, volume and mass are related but they are not the same. As an example, 1 liter of water has a mass of 1 kg whereas 1 liter of mercury has a much higher mass. Mathematically, Mass divided by volume is equal to density. Mass has units of Kg and volume has units of m3.
Can mass and volume be measured using the same process and instruments?
No. Mass and volume are two completely different properties.
Why do two samples with the same substance with the same volume HAVE to have the same mass?
Because they are of the same substance they have the same density density = mass/volume
Why can two objects with the same mass have different densities?
Volume. Density depends on mass and volume. Density = mass/volume. Things that have the exact same mass can have different densities if the volume associated with either are different.
If A sponge and a brick that are the same size they have the same what?
no; they have the same volume but their mass is quite different; density is mass/volume and the sponge has much lower density
How do you calculate the density of a substance?
Density is the mass of a substance divided by the volume of that same mass of substance.
Can objects with the same mass have the same volume?
no
How does decreasing the mass change the object's density?
Density is mass divided by volume. If the volume remains the same, decreasing the mass decreases the volume.
Why does mass and volume affect density?
The density of a substance is its mass divided by its volume. So for the same volume the higher the mass, the higher the density.
How can a small object be more dense if it does not have the most mass?
You seem to be thinking that density is the same as mass, or proportional to mass. That is not the case. Density is mass divided by volume. For example, two objects of the same material have the same density. The larger object will have more mass (in the numerator), but it will also have more volume (in the denominator).
Why can two objects with the same mass and volume have the same density?
the volume could be different that could lead to the same density. For example: d=m/v so you would have a mass of 10 for compound A and a mass of 5 for compound B, and the volume of compound A is 2 and the volume of compound B has a volume of 1. Therefore both densities equal 5.

Is volume and mass the same?
No.No.No.No.
What is the comparison between mass and volume?
mass involves weight....volume is size. A ballon and a loaf of bread may have the same volume (occupy the same space) , but the bread has more volume.
