  1. Volume = mass divided by density.


  2. The figure 1.0 alone does not represent a Density.

    It is a Specific Gravity and, in this case it is the S.G. of pure water at 4°C and 1atm. Water at these conditions is at its Maximum Density and Minimum Volume of 1kg/L.

    If the 'Object' is a mass of water then, 12kg x 1.0kg/L = 12 Litres Volume.

    12kg of water = 12,000g = 12.0 Litres = 12,000mL

    = 12,000cc. (cubic centimetres).

    = 12,000cc / 1,000,000cc per cubic metre (m³)

    = 0.012m³ volume.

    A 12kg solid with the same density as water will have a volume of 12,000cc.

    12,000cc / 1,000,000cc/m³ = 0.012m³. Volume.

    .....

  3. Density=mass/volume

    so volume = 12.0
