There are two or three general methods but the simplest is to know that
density = mass/volume.
mass can be measured with a balance (scale if you will BUT scientists don't use scales. We weigh a sack of potatoes on scales. We weigh small amounts of materials with a balance). You can put that into your own words; i.e., density = m/v and mass can be determined with a balance. Then the volume of a regular solid can be determined by measuring its length, width, and height.
Describe briefly a general method that could be used to find the density of a substance.
that the question im not quite sure of the answer some help would be nice....
thank you!
