Describes how much matter is in a certain amount of space
D = m/V
2
Q
Finding Mass
A
The mass of a substance can be found by weighing it on a scale
Rearranged equation m = V x D (used if we have density and volume and need to find mass)
3
Q
Finding Volume
A
The volume of a substance can be found by:
1) Using the volume formula for regular solids
Volume of a rectangle = L x W x H
2) Using the displacement method for irregular solids
Measure the amount of water in a container
Place the object in the water
