First you put the liquid in the graduated cylinder.Then you read the volume at the bottom of the meniscus.The meniscus is the slight curve at the edges of the surface where the liquid touches the container.

How do you find the density of a liquid?

To find the density of a liquid, you must find its mass and volume. To find the mass, use a triple beam balance, put the liquid into a container, weigh it, subtract the weight of the container, and that is how to get the mass. Then, to find the volume, use a graduated cylinder, put the liquid into the container, and then find the mark where the liquid line lands, and that is your volume. Then, divide your mass by your volume, and there is your density in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3).

How do you find the volume of a liquid in a graduated cylinder if you know the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball and the volume of the ball alone is it just a matter of subtraction?

Yes just subtract the volume of the ball from the volume you measure of the liquid.


What three measurements must you make when finding the density of a liquid?

Volume of the liquid. The mass of the liquid. The temperature of the liquid ( this can affect the volume). The tare(nett) weight of the containing vessel. The general equatyion for density is density = mass/ volume or D = m/v


How to find the density of liquids?

To find the density of a liquid, you need to measure its mass and volume. The formula for density is density mass/volume. First, measure the mass of the liquid using a scale. Then, measure the volume of the liquid using a graduated cylinder. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the liquid.


How do you find the volume of a liquid in a gradulated cylinder if you know the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball and the volume of the ball alone and is it just a matter of subtraction?

To find the volume of the liquid, you need to subtract the volume of the ball alone from the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball. The volume of the ball should be subtracted to isolate only the volume of the liquid in the cylinder.
