How is the density of a substance calculated? 2. If the shape of an object is irregular, like a stone, how can you measure its volume? 3. If the volume of a cube of wood is15.625 cm3 and its mass is 10.00 grams, show the calculation for the density of the wood.
Density is calculated by dividing the object's mass by the volume it occupies. 2. The volume may be determined by water displacement method. 3. D = m/v Substituting the known values, D = 10.0 g / 15.625 cm³ = 0.64 g/cm³
