Volume
Volume: is the amount of space an object takes up
Metric standard for volume
is the liter (L)
1L = 1000ml = 1000 cm
liters and milliliters are used to measure liquids
Cubic centimeters are used to measure solids
1cm x 1cm x 1cm = 1 cm³
Irregular solid: uneven in shape, position, arrangement
Volume of Irregular Solids
Volume = Area of base x Height
If A = 15cm and h = 10cm,
then the volume would be:
15 cm x 10 cm = 150 cm
Can also measure volume of an irregular solid by using water displacement.( see worksheet)
Conversions using volume:
5 ml = L
10 cm = L
15 L = ml
