It is quite simple if it is a regular shaped object like a cylinder or a cube. For example if you wanted calculate the volume of a cylinder you need to know the radius of the circular cross-section of the cylinder - this is the measurement from the centre of the circle, to the outer-edge and then multiply that by the height of the cylinder. For irregular shaped objects don't think there is a simple mathematical way if you don't know the density but you can always use water displacement to get a volume measurement. Just drop the object you want to know the volume off into a graduated cylinder partially filled with water - the amount the level rises will be roughly equal to the volume of the object you dropped in.
If it's a solid multiply the length times the width times the height. If it's a liquid use a graduated cylinder If it's an irregular solid drop it into a beaker, flask, graduated cylinder, or any other water-measuring tool and record how much the water goes up from the original height to the height when the irregular solid was dropped in, and subtract.
You can find volume by using displacement:The way you can do this is by filling up a beaker of a graduated cylinder or other measuring device with water.You drop some water in there and then you record how much you dropped. Then you put an object in making sure the object is completely submerged.The water will rise, and you record how much it rose, in Units of Volume (cm3).Then you subtract how much water you put in with the rise of the water when the object was put in.And that's how you find volume by displacement.
You need the heat capacities for these substances in order to answer this question. If you have those, it's simple algebra.
It depends on what percent it was dropped.
34.5/19.3=1.79mL (19.3 is the density of gold)
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.)
50 ml.
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
The density of what? But regardless the answer to that: Density is mass per volume. Mass is not influenced by the upward force of the fluid in which the object is submerged. The weight, on the other hand, is. Weight is a force, and mass is an amount of matter.
65 - 40 = 25 ml
She dropped out.
5 ml. Just do the volume after minus the volume before. This is the water displacement method.

He graduated from High School in 1964. He dropped out of Harvard (never graduated).
displacement - invented by Archimedes. Completely fill a large volume of something with water. Have a spout to channel all excess water. Place a graduated cylinder under the spout. Place irregular object in the large volume filled with water. The volume of the irregular object will displace an equivalent volume of water into the graduated cylinder. The measured volume in the cylinder is the volume of the irregular object.
A graduated cylinder is a piece of laboratory equipment used to accurately measure the volume of an object. Graduated cylinders are generally more accurate and precise for this purpose than flasks and beakers.A graduated cylinder, also known as a measuring cylinder is a piece of laboratory equipment used to accurately measure the volume of an object. Water displacement can be used to find out the volume of an object. Graduated cylinders are generally more accurate and precise for this purpose than flasks and beakers. Often, the largest graduated cylinders are made of polypropylene for its excellent chemical resistance or polymethylpentene for its clarity, making them lighter to ship and less fragile than glass. Polypropylene cylinders have excellent chemical resistance and do not shatter when dropped, although one problem with this type of cylinder is that it can not be heated. Polypropylene is easy to repeatedly autoclave (sterilize); however, autoclaving of some polypropylene graduated cylinders may affect their accuracy.
