What unit of measurement would be used to measure the mass of a rock?
Kilograms.
When you measure a rocks mass you find what?
You find a measure of the amount of matter in the rock.
How is the mass of a rock measured?
You put it on a scale or a triple-beam balance. It'll give you the mass. However, if you have the density of the rock, divide it by the volume to find the mass mathematically. You can also find the volume by the water displacement method, where you placed the rock in a graduated cylinder/beaker filled partially with water and record the difference between the original water level and the raised water level after placing the rock inside the container.
How do you find the density of a rock with the volume of 25cm3 and a mass of 100 grams?
density = mass divided by volume = 100/25 = 4 grammes per cubic centimetre.
Which set of tools will provide the most precise measurements for calculating the density of an irregulary shaped rock?
It depends on the size and mass of the rock. For a "normal" rock (as opposed to merely a stone) I suggest a crane with some means for measuring the rock's mass. A number of pulleys, each with a weighing machine should do the trick. Alternatively, you could use a weighbridge, if there is one in the vicinity. To obtain its volume, you probably need a 3-d laser-profiling device. That should give the most precise measurement of its volume.

How one would find the mass of a rock?
Weigh it! The mass is usually found indirectly, via the weight.
If a rock measures 350 grams on a pan balance what is its mass?
The mass of the rock is 350 grams. The measurement on a pan balance represents the mass of the rock, which is the amount of matter it contains.
What tool do you use to find the mass of a rock?
You can use a balance or scale to find the mass of a rock. Place the rock on the balance or scale and record the reading to determine its mass.
How would you use your calibrated bottle to find the volume of the rock?
Place a specific amount of water in your bottle. Record the volume. Place the rock in the bottle. Read and record the new volume of water. Subtract the first volume measurement from the measurement after you added the rock. The difference is the volume of the rock.
Does a 2kg rock have twice the mass of a 1kg rock?
Yes. Kilogram is the unit of mass.
What is the mass of a rock if it produces a force of 147n?
To calculate the mass of the rock, you would need to know the acceleration due to gravity acting on it. Using the formula Force = mass * acceleration, you can rearrange it to find mass. Without the value of acceleration, we cannot determine the mass.
If a small rock is two grams how many small rocks would it take to equal the mass of the larger rock that weighed 3 kilograms?
To find out how many small rocks are needed to equal the mass of the larger rock, we first convert the mass of the larger rock from kilograms to grams: 3 kilograms = 3000 grams. Since each small rock weighs 2 grams, to find the number of small rocks needed, we divide the mass of the larger rock by the weight of each small rock: 3000 grams / 2 grams per small rock = 1500 small rocks. Therefore, it would take 1500 small rocks to equal the mass of the larger rock weighing 3 kilograms.
When you measure a rocks mass you find what?
You find a measure of the amount of matter in the rock.
Which would have the greater mass - a rock with a volume of 1mL or a rock with a volume of 4mL?
A rock with a volume of 4mL would have a greater mass than a rock with a volume of 1mL. Mass is directly proportional to volume, so as volume increases, mass also increases assuming the density of the rocks is constant.
Which instrument would you use to mesure the mass of a rock?
The answer will depend on how big the rock is.
