you can measure the mass by putting it on a balance and measure really quickly. the volume you can estimate an approximate answer by putting it in water and measuring its displacement.

Why ice block cannot sink in water?

because ice has less mass per unit volume as compared to water


What is the density of a large ice block with a mass of 100grams and a volume of 10cm3?

Your mysterious block has a density of 10 grams/cm3 ,and that should tell you right away that it's not ice.


What is the density of A 6 cm3 block of ice with a mass of 4 grams?

The density of the 6 cm3 block of ice is approximately 0.67 grams/cm3. This can be calculated by dividing the mass (4 grams) by the volume (6 cm3).

Ice cream is measured by litres in bulk, or grams by serving


What would a block of ice weigh if it was 5 ft by 7 ft by 12 in thick?

A block of ice with the dimensions listed has a volume of 35ft^3. The density of ice at 32F is about 57.24 lb/ft^3. Multiplying the two together gives a mass of the ice of about 2003.4 lbs.


What is the volume of block of ice measuring 3 meters long 1.5 meters wide and 2 meters high?

The equation for the volume of a rectangular prism (such as a block of ice) is height times width times depth. That would make the volume of this block of ice is 9 meters cubed.


How many quarts in a pound of ice?

A quart is a measure of volume, a pound is a measure of mass. The two cannot be directly converted unless the density of the substance is known. An mistake often made is equating a fluid ounce (volume) to an ounce (mass) . This is not so.


Does an ice cube have the same amount of energy as a block of ice?

No, an ice cube does not have the same amount of energy as a block of ice. The energy content of an object depends on its mass, temperature, and phase. A block of ice has more mass and therefore more energy than an ice cube of the same material.


What should be used to measure the volume of an ice cream cone?

You could measure volume in cubic centimeters.


How do you calculate mass of ice?

volume*density


Explain why an ice cream factory measure with volume?

Volume is used for ice cream as a measure. For example, you can buy a quart or gallon or pint (all units of measure of volume) carton of ice cream. This use of volume measure is better than using other forms, such as weight, for a measure. Weight, for example, is not as good. Different ingredients will weight more or less than others, while volume is set and standard, regarless of the type of ice cream.
