The formula for finding density?

• D= v/m

• D= v x m

• D= m/v

• D= v + m

The amount of mass in a certain volume of matter is called

• density

• structure

• temperature

• state

An instrument called a graduated cylinder, or graduate, is used to measure

• weight

• liquid

• gas

• length

Anything that has mass and volume is

• liquid

• matter

• density

• heat

In liquid, the particles vibrate back and forth but do not leave their positions.
