How can you determine the mass volume and density of a textbook a container of milk and an air balloon?

You need to measure the mass using appropriate equipment. You can measure the volume of a textbook and a container of milk by measuring its linear dimensions and calculating the volume.
It is not at all easy to measure the volume of an air balloon. You cannot use displacement of a fluid (water) because when submerged, the balloon would be experiencing water pressure and so would occupy a smaller volume. You cannot measure it by allowing the air to escape and measure that volume of air because that air will no longer be experiencing the pressure exerted by the material (rubber?) of the balloon. I have no answer to this part.
Once you have the mass and volume, the density is merely mass/volume.

What is the density of a 4g container of Play-Doh?
1
How can you calculate the density of a screw?
density = mass/volume Determine the volume of the screw by using the water displacement method (see related link below). Determine the mass of the screw on a balance or scale. Divide the mass by the volume, and that will be the density.
What is the density of a container that has a volume of 8 liters and a mass of 6 kilograms?
0.75 kg/L
How do you determine the density of a rock 5 grams and 1 milliliter?
The same way you determine the density of any other object. Divide the mass by the volume. Add: density = mass/volume = 5g/1mL = 5g/mL = 5g/cm3* *1mL = 1 cm3
What is the density of an average banana per cubic meter?
This varies greatly with the size of the banana in question. Determine the volume of the banana using water displacement. Determine the mass of the banana on a balance. Density = mass/volume
How do you lower the density of the hydrogen gas?
You can lower the density of hydrogen (or any) gas by heating it in a container where it is free to expand, like a balloon.
How do you determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container?
You cannot. Density = Mass/Volume. You have only volume, no mass and so there is no way to determine density.
What is the density of balloon?
Density of any balloon depends on the material of the balloon and how much the balloon is filled.
What information about a mineral or rock is needed to determine its density?
To determine the density of an object, you need its mass and volume. If the object is oddly shaped, you can determine its volume by measuring the volume of water displaced when thee object is submerged in a container of water.
Why would heating the gas inan air balloon make the balloon rise?
because as you heat the gas, you cause the gas to expand on the container (whish is a balloon), this lowers the density, and a less dense fluid submersed in a denser fluid will rise, like an air bubble rises from underwater
How does density affect the position of different liquids in a container?
after you let several liquids (each with a different density) sit in a container for a while, the greater the density, the farther down the liquid is in a container
Why does a heilum balloon float and not a oxyegen balloon?
because helium has less density
How do you determine the density of salt?
Water displacement method will work fine with molecules that do not dissolve... Here you have something that will dissolve in water, changing it's density. What I would do is to weight a graduated container, put some sugar (more you add, more precise will be the result) in the container... Better weight the container before... Weight the container after. Now you know the *weight* part of the answer, then you melt it, in that container... you read the *volume* part of the answer. put the part together to have a density which is mass/volume g/cm³ for example, or g/mL, which is the same.
When a balloon is filled with air is heated does the density of the air in the balloon stay the same?
No it decreases
When will the density of the balloon decrease?
When the temperature is decreased! :)
Will a balloon with argon gas sink faster then a balloon with krypton gas?
The balloon with krypton gas has a higher density than the balloon with argon gas.
Is lower temperature air is more dense?
No, density will be the same when cooling in a fixed container (pressure will drop, mass and volume unchanged)Yes, density will increase in an flexible balloon (volumewill decrease, mass and presure constant)Yes, density will be increased in cooler open air (increased mass in the same volume).
