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.

How do you calculate volume if given bulk density?
Bulk density = dry weight / volume, then by knowing the dry weight and bulk density we can calculate the volume.
What is density of an object with the volume of 20cm3?
Density = Mass/Volume. Without information about the mass, you cannot calculate the density.
If the mass of the cube is 16g what is its density?
The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. Without the volume, you cannot calculate its density.
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
How to calculate mass using volume and density?
Density = Mass/Volume so Mass = Density*Volume.
What is the density if the mass is 2000 grams?
Density = Mass/Volume. You cannot calculate density without knowing BOTH mass and volume.
How do you calculate volume if given bulk density?
Bulk density = dry weight / volume, then by knowing the dry weight and bulk density we can calculate the volume.
What is the volume of 8 grams of wax?
The volume of a substance like wax is dependent on its density. Without knowing the density of the wax, it is not possible to calculate the volume from the mass alone.
How do you get the density of a ball without knowing the radius or the volume?
Unless you can calculate or measure the volume, you cannot. And even if you could you would get the average density - of the material of the ball and the air inside.
What is the density of a rock with a mass of 12g and a volume of Cm?
To calculate density, you need to divide the mass of the rock by its volume. In this case, the density of the rock would be 12g divided by its volume in cm^3. Without knowing the volume in cm^3, it is not possible to determine the density of the rock.
7.5 milligrams equals how many ml?
You cannot associate weight with volume without knowing the density. If you find this out. Density is mass/volume
What is the density of 1.000kg?
Density is Mass/Volume. Without a measure of volume you cannot calculate density.
What is density of an object with the volume of 20cm3?
Density = Mass/Volume. Without information about the mass, you cannot calculate the density.
What is the density of a ball with the mass of 94.9 grams?
Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. Without knowing the ball's volume, we cannot determine its density.
If the mass of the cube is 16g what is its density?
The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. Without the volume, you cannot calculate its density.
What is 1500g converted into liters?
You cannot associate weight with volume without knowing the density. If you find this out. Density is mass/volume
How many ml is 226gm?
You cannot associate weight with volume without knowing the density. If you find this out. Density is mass/volume
