Volume & Mass Practice

Front

What is volume?

Back

Volume is the amount of space an object occupies, typically measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm³).

Front

How do you find the volume of an irregular object using water displacement?

Back

To find the volume of an irregular object, submerge it in a graduated cylinder filled with water and measure the change in water level. The difference in levels gives the volume of the object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = length × width × height.

Front

What is mass?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, usually measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).

Front

How is mass different from weight?

Back

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for volume in the metric system?

Back

The unit of measurement for volume in the metric system is the liter (L) or milliliter (mL).

Front

If an object displaces 10 mL of water, what is its volume?

Back

The volume of the object is 10 mL.

Front

What is the mass of an object if it weighs 222 grams on a triple beam balance?

Back

The mass of the object is 222 grams.

Front

How do you convert milliliters to cubic centimeters?

Back

1 milliliter (mL) is equal to 1 cubic centimeter (cm³).

Front

What is the volume of a rock that displaces water from 30 mL to 34 mL?

Back

The volume of the rock is 4 mL.
