When you have a piece of a substance, its mass and volume have to be measured.
After you've done that, you can calculate the density ... it's (mass) divided by (volume).
It doesn't matter whether the sample you have is large or small. The density
will be the same.

Volume is typically calculated by measuring the object's dimensions and using the corresponding formula (e.g., length x width x height for a rectangular object). Mass is typically measured using a balance or scale. Density is then calculated by dividing the mass by the volume, and it represents the amount of mass per unit volume of an object.
I've cleaned up this wrong answer and put this final into this:
density = mass / VolumeVolume = mass / densitymass = density * VolumeTo find the volume of mercury, you need to know the density and the mass of the sample. Once you have the mass, you can use the formula: volume = mass/density to calculate the volume of mercury.
To find the density of an object, you need to measure its mass and volume. Then, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density. The formula for density is density = mass/volume.
Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. The formula for density is: Density = Mass ÷ Volume. Once you have the mass and volume values, you can plug them into this formula to find the density of the object.
The formula to find mass with density (ρ) and volume (V) is: mass = density × volume
To find the mass from volume and density, you can use the formula: mass = volume x density. Simply multiply the volume by the density value to calculate the mass. Make sure to use consistent units for volume and density for accurate results.
