How can it be measured? What is its equation?

when considering heat pipes and units for space use, a feature of heat pipe design is the working fluid inventory. It is a common practice to include a slight excess of working fluid over and above that require to saturate the wick.

Can someone advise on the density of water vapor?

Water density at about 4 degree Celsius is 1000kg/m3 above 100 degrees Celsius it becomes around 958 kg/m3 so that means it is vapor. But i have been told that the water vapor density is 0.554kg/m3.
