Volume

Definition
-The volume of an object is the amount of 3 dimensional space it occupies

-Volume can be computed by dividing the mass of and object by its density -Volume can also be computed by multiplying LxWxH -For a cube...cube the length
 * Computing**

-Common units of volume are: liter(L), milliter(mL) -Basic SI unit of volume is 1 cubic meter
 * Units**

-volume typically in L -@ STP 1 mol of any gas has a volume of 22.4 L
 * Gas**

ex. What volume will 2 mol of N occupy at STP 22.4L * 2 = 44.8L of N

Conversions
1000mL = 1L 1mL = 1 cubic cm

Syringes, burets, and pipettes deliver more accurate measurements for liquids than graduated cylinders.
