There is no name for it. If you were looking for the answer "capacity" the question is very poorly worded.

The number of cubes inside of a container to fill it up is called?

This is not well-worded. The smaller the cubes the more you'd need to fill a container, and the more completely they'd fill it. One large cube would not fill a round container but there might not be room for more than one.


Would cubes stack easily?

yes, they fit easily together. This is called tessellation.


Would a long row of 8 cubes or a cube made from 8 cubes have a greater volume?

You would be adding volumes together; whatever configuration you put them would be irrelevant then. Assuming these are all 1" cubes, you would have first a long row of 8 (1"x1"x8" total) or a cube made of cubes (2"x2"x2" total) and they both come to 8 cubic inches.


How many faces would need to be painted if there were 43 cubes?

Assuming all faces need to be painted, the question can be written as "how many faces on 43 cubes." There are 6 faces on each cube. Thus the answer can be got from the multiplication 43x6. Doing this gives us 258, so the number of faces that would need to be painted is 258.


How many faces do 6 connected cubes have?

It depends on how they are connected, i.e. how many are connected to each other. If they are connected in a line, with just one connection between any two cubes, the rectangle formed still has 6 faces, four of them rectangular (10 of the original 36 cubic faces are hidden between cubes, leaving 26 showing). If the maximum number of faces are connected, with 4 of the cubes as a larger cube and the other two attached together to it, there would be 3 large irregular faces (sides and back), 2 large cubic faces (bottom and front) and 3 rectangular faces (half cubes) as seen from the top. The total would be 8.

Is there a way to effectively determine the number of items in a container using mathematics?

Yes. If you have a square container and the volume is 27 inches. 3inches in length and 3 inches in height and 3 inches in width. Say have to fill it with 1 inch cubes. You would multiply 3x3x3 and get 27. That would be a good hypothesis.


What color container would you use to hold ice cubes in so that the ice is preserved the longest?

white, for it absorbs the least amount of light.


What is the median number of cubes in a handful?

This is a bogus/ an impossible question to answer mathematically, as firstly, you would need a data set of people with cubes in a hand, the size of the cubes is unknown, etc.


How many cubes would you need to build a stack the was 3 cubes long 2 cubes high and 4 cubes deep?

24 cubes would be it.


How many 10 inch cubes can fit in a 30 x40x20 Container?

24 because if the width is 30 and the length is 40, 12 10 inch cubes would fit in each level. then the height is 20 so there would be two levels. 12 x 2 = 24

What is the number of cubes a 3D figure can hold called?

There is no specific name.I hope you were not looking for volume as an answer because that is wrong. The fact that the cubes are of unspecified size means that there is no proper measure of anything. Also, if you tried to fill most 3-d figures with cubes, you would have corners and curves that were left out, and so the number of cubes could not measure volume even if their sizes were specified.There is no specific name.I hope you were not looking for volume as an answer because that is wrong.

What is the substance called that occupies the entire volume of the container?

This would be a gas. A gas expands to fill the space of the container that contains it.


How big of a container would be needed to hold 1 million cm2 cubes?

The question cannot be answered sensibly. A cube cannot be cm2. cm2, if that is what was intended, is a measure of area, not of volume.


Does breaking an ice cube change the identity of an ice cube?

Ice cubes are not always true cubes to begin with but we call them that anyway. If you were to break one it would just be smaller pieces of ice which depending on your perception could still be called cubes.


What would the effect on temperature and volume be if you changed the number of moles of gas in a container?

In a container the volume remain constant but the pressure increase.
