Density

How to find the density of a regular and irregular solid.

  • How to find the density of a regular solid STEP 1
    Measure the mass of the object using a balance.
  • STEP 2
    Next measure the dimensions of the object using a ruler.
  • STEP 3
    Then calculate the volume using the equation: volume = length x width x height.
  • STEP 4
    Then calculate the density using the equation: Density=mass/volume.
  • How to find the density of an irregular solid STEP 1
    Use a balance to measure the mass of the object.
  • STEP 2
    Then fill the displacement can with water up to just below the tip.
  • STEP 3
    Then place the object in the displacement can.
  • STEP 4
    Next measure the amount of water that comes out of the can using a measuring cylinder.
  • STEP 5
    Work out volume which is: - Volume of object = volume of water
  • STEP 6
    Work out density with the equation: - Density = Mass/volume
