4. Volume of a Solid BASE UNIT: cubic meter (m 3 )

5. Regularly shaped solid (i.e. cube, sphere, pyramid, etc.) - Use the formula for the object For Example: Volume of a box = length x width x height = 8 =4 Height =2 = 8 x 4 x 2 = 64

6. Irregularly shaped object (i.e. stone, pencil, etc.) - Use water and a measuring device (beaker, graduated cylinder, etc.) A.B.

7. Volume of a Liquid Base Unit: Liter (l)

10. Measuring a Liquid’s Volume 1) Graduated Cylinders 2) Beakers 3) Flasks

11. Using a Graduated Cylinder You must read the bottom of the meniscus Curved line that forms at the edges of liquid

13. Always Read at Eye Level

14. 7.) Density – ratio of mass to volume

15. 8) Density - measures of how closely the particles of an object are packed

16. 9) Formula to calculate density Density = Mass Volume
