The video tutorial explains how to measure the density of different substances, including regular solids, irregular solids, and liquids. It covers the process of measuring mass and volume, using tools like balances, rulers, and measuring cylinders. For regular solids, dimensions are measured and multiplied to find volume. For irregular solids, water displacement is used. For liquids, the mass of the liquid is found by subtracting the mass of an empty cylinder from the filled one. The density is calculated by dividing mass by volume for each substance.
