Volume is like the capacity of an item. Volume is found by multiplying the base by the height by the width of a geometric shape. Volume is expressed as cubic units. The formula is: Base*Width*Height. Of course, the order doesn't matter.

Mass is amount of matter in an object. You find mass by placing an object on one end of a balance scale. You then add gram weights to the other side until the scale is perfectly balanced. The total number of grams of weight on the other side of the balance scale is the mass of the object. Remember, mass IS NOT weight. Weight will change depending on the amount of gravity, mass will not.
