Sodium Chloride and Ml Density
Objective: The purpose of experiment of density determination is to determine the densities of regularly shaped object and irregular shaped solids as well liquids. Density equal mass over volume.

Materials Used: Materials used in this experiment was a regular shaped object and irregular shaped object and a ruler to take the measurements of the object. A graduated cylinder and electric beam balance were used to measure the volumes and masses of the object. As well 5-20% concentrated were used as well.

Summary of Procedures: There are three sections of this experiment for section A, a regularly shaped object was obtained and the volume and mass was calculated to find the density of the regularly shaped object. In the second part of section A, sample of metal pellets were obtain and asked to find the density of the pallets. The metal pellets were weighed to calculate the mass. Using the graduated cylinder, 50mL were approximately added to the graduated cylinder. The pellets were then added into the graduated cylinder and to get the volume of the pellets by subtracting the volume of the water and the pellets by the volume of just the water itself. For the 2nd part of this experiment part B a 25 mL cylinder was used the empty cylinder was weighed on the electronic beam balance then 23.0 mL’s of distilled water was added and weighed again to calculate the mass of the water as well as the density was calculated. The same process was performed to calculate the density of an unknown substance. The third part Section C 5-25% of sodium chloride was prepared by the instructor. For each percent concentration of sodium chloride a 25 mL was prepared. Weighing the graduated cylinder before and after the sodium chloride was transferred the density were calculation.

Pre- Laboratory Questions:
1. A metal sphere weighing 15.45 g is added to 21.27 mL of water in a graduated cylinder. The water level rises to 24.78 mL. Calculate the density of the metal.
Then

    In this experiment, the experimenters found the density of solid objects and then the concentrations of solutions based on their densities. It was determined that as density increases, concentration does as well. The density of a substance is something that stays constant, for solutions of material the density is expected to increase in direct translation to the concentration increasing. The theory surrounding this lab was to see in practice how density could be determined with displacement and then to determine whether the density does in fact increase directly with the concentration.…

    III. Procedure- The first thing one must do to identify which substance is which is to calculate the densities. To do this, one must take the mass and volume of each individual substance. Starting with mass, one can use the triple beam balance. Make sure the balanced is zeroed. Once that is true, place the object onto the balance a carefully find the mass of the object. Repeat and record the results found of each individual substance. To find the volume, one can use the water displacement method. One will fill up a graduated cylinder with water to a specific amount. 20 mL is sufficient. Once completed, one will drop one of the substances into the graduated cylinder and record how far the water level rises. If it starts at 20mL and rises to 22mL then the volume of the substance is 22mL minus 20mL, so 2mL. Repeat and record the results found of each individual substance.…

    The purpose of the Density Lab was to determine the identity of four unknown solids and two unknown liquids by calculating their densities and comparing them to a density chart, taking into account error analysis and finally classifying the substances. In order to calculate this density, we first found the mass of the container that was to be holding the substances. We then found the volume of the substance, and lastly determined the mass of the container and substance. We subtracted (Container + Substance) – Container to find the mass of simply the substance. In order to distinguish density, we took the final mass divided by the volume, and identified the substances based on Density Charts we found online. Originally we hypothesized that we would be able to identify these substances based on the densities we calculated, yet this proved to be harder than it seemed, however our hypothesis was correct. We now could concluded the densities and identification. The density of Unknown Liquid 1 was 1.26 which was found to be Colorless Glycerin (also density of 1.26) and Unknown Liquid 2 was 0.88 or Rubbing Alcohol (colorless). Unknown Solid 1 has a density of 7.20 or Iron, Solid 2 is 2.59 and Aluminum, Solid 3 is 5.47 and Tin, while Solid 4 has a density of 9.81and Nickel? We…

    Laboratory Measurements and Density Objectives: A. To determine the density of Aluminum (lit. value = 2.7 g/cm3) by determining its mass, and measuring its volume by dimensional analysis and water displacement. We will also examine the % error in our determination based on the literature value. B. To determine the mass and diameter of select ball bearing. Plot graphs of mass vs. diameter, mass vs. surface area, and mass vs. volume. Afterwards use slop of the mass vs. volume graph to determine density. Procedure: 1. A. Weigh an aluminum cylinder on the analytical balance and record its mass to the nearest 0.01 g. • Using a Vernier Caliper, measure and record the height and diameter of the cylinder. • Using proper formula to determine the volume of the cylinder. A cylinder with radius r units and height h units has a volume of V cubic units given by V = πr2h, (r = ½ d). • Calculate density according to d = mass/volume. • Compare your calculated densities with the literature value for the density of Aluminum and determine the % error for each calculation. B. Add water to a graduated cylinder, read the volume (mL), carefully slide the aluminum cylinder into the water in the graduated cylinder and read the volume (mL) again. The difference between the after volume reading and the before volume reading, gives the volume attributed to the aluminum in mL. Calculate the density of the aluminum using the already determined mass and the displacement volume. C. From the known value for the cylinder’s density, which method has the better accuracy? Which method has the better precision? 2. Weigh 4 ball bearing (one at a time) on an analytical balance to the nearest 0.01 g. Record the mass of the bearing in increasing order. • Measure the diameter of each ball bearing using the Vernier Caliper, and record each value. • Calculate and record the surface area of each bearing using the equation (A = 4πr2). • Calculate and record the volume of each bearing using equation (V = 4/3πr3).…
