How do you measure mass?

Answer

Mass is measured using:

  1. Balance scales - Compare against known standard masses
  2. Electronic scales - Display mass digitally
  3. Triple-beam balances - Used in laboratories for precision
  4. Spring scales - Actually measure weight but display mass values

Place the object on the scale and read the measurement directly in the desired unit (grams, kilograms, etc.).
