How do you measure volume and mass?

How? Volume with a pipet, graduated cylinder, or by weighing.
Mass is measured with a balance.
I don't think these answers are what you are looking for and if they are not please be a little more specific about what you are asking.
are you asking for their formulas?
Be careful with your answers as there is a difference between determining mass or volume and measuring them.

For example you can measure volume with say a graduated cylinder, but if you use the mass of the material (by weighing) then you are DETERMINING the volume as you need to do a calculation using the density.

The two are also quite different as volume is a derived unit (metres x metres x metres) whereas mass is a base (or fundamental) unit.
