How do you find the density of a liqiud?

Answer:The formula is:D=M/V(Density equals mass divided by volume)It is the same type of thing for Mass and Volume:M=D(V)(Mass equals Density multiplied by Volume)V=M/D(Volume equals Mass divided by Density)


How can convert volume to mass?

To convert volume to mass, you need the density of the substance. Multiply the volume by the density to get the mass using the formula: mass = volume x density. The units of volume and density must be compatible for accurate conversion.


What happens to an objects density if you add more of the substance to it?

If you add more of the same substance to an object, the density of the object will increase. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume, so as you add more substance, the mass increases but the volume does not increase proportionally, resulting in a higher density.


Any object that has a mass and a volume?

Could asker add further clarification to this query? Mass = volume * density if this helps


If you add water to sand does the volume density and mass change?

Well, honey, when you add water to sand, the volume will likely increase, but the density and mass will depend on the proportions of water and sand you mix. If you add just a little water, the density may increase slightly due to the added mass, but if you add a lot of water, the density will decrease because water is less dense than sand. So, the volume changes, but the density and mass can go either way depending on how much water you throw into the mix.


Mass plus volume equals?

Time squared over distance. No, it is not "Density". Density is mass divided by VOLUME. Weight is the force of gravity acting on the mass. force = mass * acceleration. Thus, mass/force = 1/acceleration, or, in generic units, time squared over distance. Don't believe every game show answer you hear.


Does flattening a block affect mass volume and density?

It will not affect mass because the mass of an object stays the same (unless you take away or add mass). It will affect volume and density. Since the object is being flattened so it takes up less space, its volume is smaller. But since it is the same amount of matter just in a smaller space, the density is greater. Basically, volume and density are inversely related (in respect to mass). With mass staying the same, as the volume decreases, the density increases.


How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?

You can dip the irregular solid in a water or other suitable liquid. This is how, you can measure the volume of the solid. The mass can be measured by weighing scale. Mass/volume = density. It is easy to measure the mass and volume of the liquid. First measure the mass the container. Then add the liquid to it. You will get the mass of the liquid. Then measure the volume of the liquid. Use the above formula to calculate the density of the liquid.


Is the density of an object equal to it's mass per unit volume?

An object's density is inversely proportional to the object's volume. As the volume increases the density decreases, and vice versa.


What is the accepted value of density for lead?

Density= Mass/VolumeAlso, you could determine the Volume by filling a beaker up with any amount of water and record the amount. Drop the piece(s) of lead in the water and record the new amount in the beaker. Subtract the new reading by the old reading and this is your volume. To find mass just weigh the piece(s) of lead in grams and this is you mass, then plug your measurements into the equation above.It might sound complicated, but it is really easy, if you have the scale and beaker.


How do you determine the density of a rock 5 grams and 1 milliliter?

The same way you determine the density of any other object. Divide the mass by the volume. Add: density = mass/volume = 5g/1mL = 5g/mL = 5g/cm3* *1mL = 1 cm3


If you were to ignore the water in the pan on the scale while measuring the mass of a mineral what would be the effect on your density calulation?

The water would add excess mass to your calculation for density. This would cause the density to be greater than the true density.Density = mass / volumeSo if the mass is greater than the true value and the volume is the same, then the density increases.
