How to Use the Calculator
This calculator helps you determine the relationship between the volume, weight, and density of a substance.
For calculating weight:
- Enter the volume of the substance in cm³ or mL
- Enter the density of the substance in g/cm³ or g/mL
- Leave the weight field empty
- Click the "Calculate" button
- The weight will be displayed in the result section
For calculating density:
- Enter the weight of the substance in grams
- Enter the volume of the substance in cm³ or mL
- Leave the density field empty
- Click the "Calculate" button
- The density will be displayed in the result section
For calculating volume:
- Enter the weight of the substance in grams
- Enter the density of the substance in g/cm³ or g/mL
- Leave the volume field empty
- Click the "Calculate" button
- The volume will be displayed in the result section
Principle Explained
The relationship between volume, weight, and density is given by the formula:
Weight = Volume × Density
Where:
- Weight is the mass of the substance measured in grams (g)
- Volume is the space occupied by the substance measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) or milliliters (mL)
- Density is the mass per unit volume of the substance measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or grams per milliliter (g/mL)
Example
If you have 500 mL of water and want to find its weight, you would:
- Enter 500 in the Volume field
- Enter 1 (density of water) in the Density field
- Leave the Weight field empty
- Click "Calculate"
- You will get 500 g as the weight of water
