There is no unit of measure, and no mechanical device,
that can describe or measure both mass and volume.

What must be measured to calculate density?
Density is mass per unit volume - so you need both of those.
What metric unit of mass would you use to measure the volume of a kettle?
You don't use a unit of mass to measure a volume. Mass and volume are two different things. Mass is measured in kilograms. The main unit of volume in the SI is the cubic meter, but for a kettle, the liter (= cubic decimeter, or 1/1000 of a cubic meter) can be used instead.
What metric unit would you use to measure the mass or capacity of a dime?
The mass of any coin is typically measured in grams; the capacity or volume would be measured in millilitres.
What characteristic property measured in grams per cubic centimeter that tells a substance's mass per until volume?
Density...........Mass/volume=density
What property is being measured when the unit of measurement is it length density mass volume?
The unit of length in SI is metre (m). The unit of mass in SI is kilogram (kg). The unit of volume in SI is litre (L). The derived unit of density in SI is Mg/m3 (or g/cm3). Length, mass, density, volume are not units but characteristics of materials and objects.
What is the density of copper in grams per square centimeter?
Density is measured as mass per unit volume: not mass per unit area. Unless the material is of uniform thickness.Density is measured as mass per unit volume: not mass per unit area.

Is the basic unit for measuring volume kilogram's?
No.* Mass is measured in kilograms. * Volume is measured in cubic meters (which is not a base unit, but a derived unit).

Can the density of mass be measured?
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. If you can take a unit volume, (1cm3) of a material, the measured mass is it's density. Also, if you cannot separate out a unit volume, you can measure the volume of an object by immersing it in a liquid and measuring the volume of the liquid displaced by the object. Then measure the mass of that object. Density (Mass / Volume) When mass is measured in kg, and volume in metres, Units of density is kg/m3 In Chemistry, however, density is measured in grams per cubic centimetre, g/cm3
How can you use milliters in density?
Density is calculated as measured mass per unit volume. Milliliters are a unit of volume, so you could use that in your volume measurement.
What is the mass of the moon in cubic miles?
A cubic mile is a unit of volume, not of mass. Mass is measured in kilograms, pounds, or tonnes.
In which unit is volume measured?
Volume is measured in decibals.
What is a Characteristic property measured in grams per cubic centimeter that tells a substance's mass per unit volume?
The mass of a substance per unit volume is its density. That property can be described using any convenient units of mass and volume.
What units is measured for density?
density = mass/volume Any unit for density should have a mass unit over a volume unit. Some examples include: kg/m3, g/cm3, g/mL.
Are volume and mass different?
Mass is defined as the quantity of matter in an object. This is measured in grams as the standard unit. Weight is diffrernt than mass! Volume is defined as the amount of space an object takes up. This is measured in liters.
What is the mass units for density?
Density is measured in units of mass divided by units of volume. The SI unit is kilograms/meter3.
