Cubic centimeters (cm^3) and cubic meters (m^3) are commonly used metric units to measure solid volume.
To find the density of a rectangular solid, first measure the mass of the solid using the balance scale. Then, measure the dimensions (length, width, and height) of the solid using a metric ruler. Calculate the volume of the solid by multiplying the three dimensions. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to find the density of the rectangular solid.
To measure the volume of a regular shaped solid, you can use a formula specific to the shape you are working with. For example, for a cube, you would measure the length of one side and then use the formula Volume = side length^3. For a cylinder, the formula is Volume = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. Simply plug in the appropriate values to calculate the volume.
The metric unit used to measure the density of a solid is grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3). This unit represents the mass of the solid per unit volume, and is commonly used in scientific calculations and measurements of density.
To measure the volume of a large irregular solid, you can use the water displacement method. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then submerge the irregular solid in the water and measure the change in water level. The difference in water level will indicate the volume of the irregular solid.
The volume of regular solid can be measured by multiplying the length, is width and its distance.
Cubic centimeters (cm^3) and cubic meters (m^3) are commonly used metric units to measure solid volume.
1. Measure the dimensions of the solid. 2. Calculate the volume on this geometric base.
You measure its mass and volume and then density = mass/volume.
It depends on the matter. Regular solid matter could be measured in metric measurements with a rule or a tape measure. Or in weight. Or in the volume of water the matter displaces, in which case the measurement would be in litres and millilitres.

A milliliter is typically used to measure the volume of a liquid, such as water or oil. It is a unit of volume in the metric system, equivalent to one-thousandth of a liter.
To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.
