You can measure its dimensions, then calculate the volume from a formula for the specific shape of the container, or you could fill it up with water, then pour that water into a graduated cylinder or other calibrated measuring instrument. Or if you know the density of water in your room (it varies with temperature, and any contaminants in the water), then you could measure the mass of the container, then fill it up with water and measure the mass again. Subtract the mass of the container and then divide by the density to determine the volume. Density of pure water is approximately 1 gram/cm3.

How do you find the volume of a triangular container?
surface area of triangle times the width/height of container.
What is the Formula to find volume of gas?
You don't need a formula, which is lucky, because there isn't any.All you have to know is the volume of the container it's in.Gas always expands to fill the entire volume of the container.
Can a container hold volume or mass?

How do you use an overflow container to find an object volume?
To find the volume of an object, we use an overflow cylinder as it gives a measure of the volume of the object by displacing an equal amount of water into the beaker.
How do you find the volume of a triangular container?
surface area of triangle times the width/height of container.
How many dimes can fit in a 5 gallon container?
5 gallons of what?you need to in the volume of a single dime and then find the volume of the container and divide that number into the volume of a single dime.AnswerFinding out how many dimes it takes to fill any container isn't as simple as dividing the volume of a dime into the volume of the container. There will be spaces between the dimes depending on how they are "distributed" or "arranged" in the container.

What happens to to the volume of a container when a rock is added?
The volume of the container remains the same, but the level of the container will increase to accommodate the rock.
What is the volume formula for liquid?
Depending on the shape of the container for the liquid, you can find the volume different ways. If the container is a cube, the volume is (base * Width * height). if the container is a cylinder, the volume is (PI * Radius2 * height). The answer you would get from these equations is expressed in units cubed (example: cm3).
What is the volume of a 2x2x2 container?
The volume of a 2x2x2 container is 8.
Can a container hold volume or mass?
A container holds volume.
The volume of a gas is the same as the volume of its?
container. Gas molecules spread out to fill the available space of the container, so the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container it occupies.
If matter expands to fill the volume of its container it is a?
If matter expands to fill the volume of its container, it is a gas. Gases have no definite shape or volume and will take the shape and volume of their container.
