Mass density is the amount of mass contained within a unit volume of a substance. It is commonly expressed in units such as kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m³), gram per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), and gram per milliliter (g/mL). Higher density indicates that more mass is packed into the same volume.

Mass density is widely used in engineering, material science, construction, manufacturing, geology, chemistry, and physics to identify materials, calculate loads, evaluate buoyancy, and analyze the physical properties of solids, liquids, and gases.
