Density Experiment

To measure the states of matter we measure their volume, mass and density.


  • Volume: - how much space an object takes up
  • Mass: - how much matter an object has
  • Density: - how heavy an object is for its size


Weight is different to density. Weight measures the effect of gravity on an object.



We measure the states of matter using the metric system.

  • Volume: - measured in litres or metre cubed
  • Mass: - measured in grams
  • Density: - mass divided by volume
