Density, mass & volume calculator

Any one of the three from the other two.

What this calculator does

Density, mass & volume works out any one of the three from the other two. Enter your own figures above and the answer updates as you type: nothing is fixed in the code, so the result reflects exactly the numbers you supply.

The formula this calculator evaluates is printed under the tool and explained below, so you can check the working by hand or reuse it in a spreadsheet.

The formula

Formulaρ = m/V; m = ρV; V = m/ρ

The inputs explained

FieldWhat to enter
Mass (g)A number, measured in g. Starts at 500.
Volume (cm³)A number, measured in cm³. Starts at 200.

Worked examples

Every figure in the tables below is produced by this page’s own calculator at build time, so the numbers and the tool always agree. Select any row to load that scenario.

How the answer changes with mass

Every other input is held at the calculator’s starting values while mass varies. Select any row to load that scenario into the calculator.
