It is possible for the mass to have infinite density at the point known as, the black hole.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With respect to the expert answer given above. It is by no means proven that "mass can not exist without volume" this is because mass and energy are equivalent. Applying traditional logic and physics to a description of a singularity is not possible at the moment.

You are very correct. Mass and energy are equivalent. Then who told you that the energy does not occupy the space? I want you to remind that the light is hold back by the black holes due to gravitational force. The light rays get bent when passing near to black hole. That means the light rays has got the mass. It is our psychological reaction to neglect very minute particles as having zero mass and very little space occupied as zero space. (Dr. Ashok Deshmukh.)

It is mentioned in the Wikipedia, in chapter on Big Bang that extrapolation of the expansion of the of the Universe backward in time using general relativity yields an infinite density and temperature at finite time in the past. Let us discuss the practicality of the statement. The mass of the sun is finite. The mass of your galaxy can be deducted approximately. Which is again the finite figure. You can deduct the mass of the universe. Which is again the finite figure. Then the point volume of the universe may in mm, micrometer, nanometre or femtometre. Which is again the finite figure. So as per the formula of the mass upon the volume, the density is again the finite figure. Although the figure is extremely high. But it is finite and not infinite. So the mass can not exist with out the volume. So it is not possible for the mass to have infinite density. This explanation is given to defy the mass with infinite density. The mass can probably be pressed to next quantum only. So the mass can be pressed to between 100,000 to 1,000,000 times only to that of density of the nucleus. This figure is purely a guess work and there is no much logic behind this figure. It is not possible to compress the mass beyond this next quantum figure. The mass is disfigured at this stage. It lose the shape as a proton, electron and neutron at this stage. Then it can tolerate the pressure to extreme level.

Does a black hole have infinite mass?

No, a black hole definitely does not have infinite mass. In some mathematical models, there is an object called a singularity, inside a black hole, which has infinite density. That is not the same as infinite mass. If a finite mass is contained in zero volume, then the density becomes infinite. We do not have any real confirmation that such a thing as a singularity or an infinite density actually exist, but they may.

Is it more correct to say that a Black Hole has infinite mass or infinite gravity?

A black hole has infinite density.


What do scientists call anything takes up space and has mass?

Matter - the relationship between the space it takes up and its mass is called density. But it is possible to have something that has enormous mass and takes up no space (it therefore has infinite density). This is called a black hole.


What is the density if the volume is 65ml?

I have no idea what the density might be if the volume is 65 ml. If you will get the mass then it will be possible to determine the density. If the mass is 65g, the density is 1. If the mass is 130g, the density is 2. If the mass is 32.5 then the density is 0.5. However, without the mass, I have no idea.


What is infinite density?

infinite density means zero volume.


Is it possible to have diffferent volumes yet same density?

Since Density=Volume/Mass, and the mass increases as the volume increases they will always have the same density no matter how big it is.


What is in a blackhole?

a lot of empty space and a point singularity at the exact center containing all the mass compressed to infinite density.


What is the equation for mass volume and density?

Mass = Density x Volume Density = Mass/Volume Volume = Mass/Density


Why light don't travel at an infinite speed?

Because at infinite speed, it's mass will become zero, which is not possible as it consists of photons which are not massless particles.


What is the equasion for mass and density and volume?

A list for all the possible ways to solve for mass density and volume would take a one thousand page textbook to complete, but if you are talking about all of them in the same equation it is mass=density*volume


How can gravity or anything be infinite?

The classical idea about black holes is that in a black hole, mass is concentrated to an infinitely small size, so it has an infinite density. That would cause an infinite gravitational field. However, this infinite density, etc. seems doubtful in view of quantum physics - but what exactly happens near the center of a black hole has not been completely clarified yet.
