What is the formula to calculate the density of a regularly shaped solid?

• density = mass/volume

• density = volume/mass

• density = mass x volume

• density = volume x mass

How do you calculate the volume of a regularly shaped solid?

• volume = length x width x height

• volume = mass/length x width

• volume = mass/height x width

• volume = length + width + height

What is the first step in calculating the density of an irregularly shaped solid?

• Measure the mass using a balance

• Fill a measuring cylinder with water

• Place the solid in the measuring cylinder

• Calculate the volume of the solid

How do you calculate the density of a liquid?

• density = mass/volume

• density = volume/mass

• density = mass x volume

• density = volume x mass

What should you do if a solid floats in water while measuring its density?

• Use something to ensure the solid is completely under the water

• Ignore the floating and proceed with measurement

• Add more water to the cylinder

• Use a different solid
