| mass | This is the measure of the amount of matter in an object |
| characteristic property | This is an attribute that can be used to help identify a substance. Density is an example of this. |
| density | This is the mass of a known volume of a substance. |
| matter | This refers to the substances that make up the universe. These substances have mass and take up space. |
| volume | This is the amount of space occupied by an object. |
| balance | We use this tool to measure the mass of most types of matter. |
| graduated cylinder | We use this tool to measure the volume of a liquid or irregularly shaped solid object. |
| length x width x height | This is the formula used to calculate the volume of rectangular prisms. |
| grams per cubic centimeter | This is the label for a density calculation. |
| water displacement | We use this method to find the volume of an irregular solid object using a graduated cylinder. |
| 1 gram per cubic centimeter | This value is the density of water. |
| grams or kilograms | These are the metric units we use to measure mass. |
| mL, L, cubic cm, cubic m | These are the metric units we use to measure volume. |
| mass divided by volume | This is how we calculate the density of a substance. |
