How to Use the Density Formula (ρ = m / V)

Density is a fundamental property in physics, chemistry, and engineering, describing how much mass is contained in a given volume. Our Density Calculator lets you solve for density, mass, or volume using the formula ρ = m / V, with support for both SI and imperial units. Perfect for students, engineers, scientists, and anyone interested in the science of materials, fluids, and substances.

How to Use the Density Calculator

  • Select which variable to solve for: density, mass, or volume.
  • Enter the known values in the input fields, and select the appropriate units for each parameter.
  • Click Calculate to see the result, with automatic unit conversion.

Parameters Explained

  • Density (ρ): The amount of mass per unit volume, measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³), grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft³), or ounces per cubic inch (oz/in³).
  • Mass (m): The total mass of the substance, measured in kilograms (kg), grams (g), pounds (lb), or ounces (oz).
  • Volume (V): The space occupied by the substance, measured in cubic meters (m³), cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic feet (ft³), or cubic inches (in³).
  • Unit Selection: Choose the appropriate unit for each value to match your calculation needs.
