    From the question, we are given a graduated cylinder and a gram balance,

    Graduated Cylinder -

    The purpose of a graduated cylinder is to determine the volume of any liquid.

    The graduated cylinder have the marks for the amount of liquid filled in it, Hence, the volume of the water can be determined, by filling the water and observing the reading.

    To calculate the mass of water, first the empty cylinder is weighed and then water is added and again weighed, now the difference will give the mass of the water,

    Now to calculate the value of density,

    Density of a substance is given by the mass of the substance divided by the volume of the substance.

    Hence, d = m / V

    V = volume

    m = mass,

    d = density,

    Hence, by putting the values for the mass and volume, density is calculated from the above formula.
