The best way would be to use the ancient Archemedean way: take a bowl or similar object that can fully contain the rock in question. Put the bowl in a large pan. Fill the bowl completely with water, all the way up to the very rim. Now, submerge the rock completely in the bowl, so that it is entirely underwater. Water will spilled out of the bowl into the pan. Remove the bowl from the pan, and pour the water from the pan into a measuring cup - the volume of that water is the volume of the rock.

Does a scale figure the volume of a rock?
A scale can measure the weight of a rock, but it does not directly measure its volume. To determine the volume, you can use methods like water displacement or geometric calculations if the rock’s shape is regular. The relationship between weight and volume can then be used alongside the rock's density if needed.
How can you figure out the density of a irregular rock?
To determine the density of an irregular rock, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder. Then, submerge the rock completely in the water and measure the new water level; the difference in volume indicates the rock's volume. Finally, divide the mass of the rock (measured using a scale) by the volume obtained from the water displacement to calculate the density.
How could you figure out the volume of an irregular solid such as a rock?
Fill a bowl of water that is bigger than the rock right to the top, add the rock, collect and measure the volume of how much water is spilt. Provide the rock is not porous or very soluble this will provide the volume of the rock.
How do you find the volume of n irregularly shaped rock?
use a graduated cylinder or other volume measuring container. just put a certain amount of water in, take note of it, then put the rock in and measure the difference, make sure the water goes up and above the rock though
How can the volume of a irregularly shaped rock be measured?
One way would be to get a container into which you could put the rock completely, fill it to the brim with water (without the rock in it), then put the rock in and measure the volume of the water that flowed out.
How do you measure a irregular solid?
You use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of the rock with the water and the water without the rock
How do you get the volume of rock?
To calculate the volume of a rock, you can use the formula for the volume of a sphere (4/3 * pi * r^3) if the rock is spherical, or use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism (length * width * height) if the rock has a more regular shape. Otherwise, you can measure the volume by water displacement: submerge the rock in water and measure the increase in water level to find its volume.
Best way to measure the vplume of irregularly sharpe rock?
To measure the volume of irregularly shaped rocks, you can use the water displacement method. Submerge the rock in a container of water and measure the change in water volume as the rock displaces the water. The difference in water volume before and after submerging the rock will give you the volume of the rock.
How would you determine the density of an irregular shaped rock?
Not always easy. Since density is defined as the mass of a unit volume of material,you would measure the volume of the rock by putting it into a container half filled with water and then measure the volume change.
What unit of measure would you use for the volume of a rock?
Any cubed unit depending on how big the rock is
How can you measure volume of the rock?
it is easiest to do with small rocks, but can be dome with anything if you can move it and have a container large enough to hold it. place water into a container with measurment markings and place the rock into it. the amount the water level rises, called displacement, is the volume of the rock.
How can you figure out the density of a irregular rock?
To determine the density of an irregular rock, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder. Then, submerge the rock completely in the water and measure the new water level; the difference in volume indicates the rock's volume. Finally, divide the mass of the rock (measured using a scale) by the volume obtained from the water displacement to calculate the density.
What is a a beaker used for?
To measure volume
What do you use to measure 10.5 of rock salt?
We would use MassSingle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do you do in order to measure the volume of rock?
Fill a beaker or measuring cylinder with water and record the volume of water indicated. Put the rock in the beaker/measuring cylinder and record the new volume of water indicated. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the rock.
How can you find the volume of a rock that is too big to fit into a graduated cylinder?
One way to find the volume of a large rock is to use the water displacement method. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then carefully lower the rock into the water. Measure the change in water level to determine the volume of the rock.
What would you do to determine the volume of a rock?
You would determine the volume of water it displaces and measure it.
