1. Mass & Volume
6th grade

2. -Mass –The amount of matter in an object.

3. Volume:
-Volume- measures the amount of space that a substance or object occupies. -Volume is measured in mL or cm3

4. 5cm x 3cm x 2cm = 30 cm3 How to find volume: 5.0 mL
Regular Figures- multiple the length x width x height
Irregular Figures- find water displacement
5cm x 3cm x 2cm = 30 cm3
Before
After
5.0 mL
You have to find the difference between the before and after to find the volume of the irregular figure:
5.0 mL – 3.4 mL = 1.6 mL
3.4 mL

5. How to find mass:
Using a triple beam balance, we find the mass of an object.
354.6 g
