How to Accurately Calculate the Mass of a Liquid

Learn the simple formula to calculate the mass of any liquid using density and volume measurements.

12 views

To calculate the mass of a liquid, use the formula: mass = density × volume. First, determine the liquid’s density (often found in reference materials) and measure the volume of the liquid. Multiply these values to get the mass. For example, if the density is 1 g/cm³ and the volume is 250 cm³, the mass would be 250 grams.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What is the formula for calculating the mass of a liquid? The formula is mass = density × volume.
  2. How do I find out the density of a liquid? Density can usually be found in reference materials or calculated by measuring the mass and volume of the liquid.
  3. What units are used to measure mass and volume? Common units include grams (g) for mass and cubic centimeters (cm³) for volume.
  4. Can I apply this method to any liquid? Yes, as long as you know the density of the specific liquid.
