  • Density Measurement: Instruments & Calculation
    There isn't a specific instrument that directly measures density. Density is a derived quantity calculated from two measurements:

    * Mass: Measured using a balance or scale.

    * Volume: Measured using various instruments depending on the shape and state of the substance (e.g., graduated cylinder, beaker, displacement method, etc.).

    Therefore, you need multiple instruments to determine density, not just one.

    Here's how to calculate density:

    Density = Mass / Volume
