LAB ACTIVITY 1 MEASUREMENTS IN SCIENCE: MASS‚ VOLUME‚ AND DENSITY Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is find the density of two metals using their mass and volume. Introduction: The purpose of the experiment that was conducted was to measure and calculate the density of two different metals. Density is an important characteristic of a material. The density of an object shows how much mass is contained in the unit volume. To calculate the density of metals the experimenters had to find

and Understanding Density‚ several experiments were performed to find density of regularly shaped objects‚ irregularly shaped objects‚ liquids and gasses. An additional experiment was done to find the specific gravity of a sampling of liquids. The purpose of the experiment was to provide a better understanding of density and to be able to extrapolate unknowns based upon these calculations. The experiments yielded data in keeping with Kinetic-molecular theory in regards to the density of water versus

Experiment #1: Mass‚ Volume and Density Performed: 2/2/11 Turned in: 2/9/11 The purpose of this experiment is to verify the independence of X and Y motion for a projection. We watch the professor perform this experiment. The equipment used in this experiment was a projectile launcher (ME-6800)‚ a drop shoot accessory (ME-9859)‚ one photogate (ME-9204A)‚ white paper‚ carbon paper‚ two time-of-flight timing pad (ME-6810)‚ two balls (ball 1 and ball 2)‚ and an interface computer.

SCIENCE Density Calculate density‚ and identify substances using a density chart. Density is a measure of the amount of mass in a certain volume. This physical property is often used to identify and classify substances. It is usually expressed in grams per cubic centimeters‚ or g/cm3. The chart on the right lists the densities of some common materials. EQUATION: Densities of Substances Substance Density (g/cm3) Gold 19.3 Mercury 13.5 Lead mass density ϭ ᎏ volume

Soil Porosity & Density Objective: To determine if the porosity of soil is related to the density. Hypothesis: I think that that the porosity of soil is related to the density because the higher the density of the sand the lower the porosity of the sand‚ which are both componets for the water to rise. Materials: • Sand and Loam samples • 2 large containers • Plastic cups • Water • Scale Procedure: Loam 1) The loam without the water was fresh ‚ it had different shades of black‚ and

These liquids include; Water‚ Hexane‚ Carbon Tetrachloride‚ and solids include; Copper‚ Zinc‚ Lead and‚ Aluminum. It’s important to know the weight of these products so you can properly conduct experiments and make clear observations. Different

Name Date Lab: Denisty – Solids and Liquids Part 1: Density Background Information: The density of an object is how much “stuff”‚ or molecules‚ a substance is made of. Density is how tightly packed the molecules are. To calculate the density of a substance we need to know the mass (weight) of the substance and the volume (how much space) of the substance. Mass is determined by weighing an object. Volume of regular shaped objects is calculated by measuring

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Experiment Mass density describes how heavy an object is. Defined by the Greek letter ρ‚ read as rho‚ density is a basic yet important physical property of matter. For a bulk body without accounting its existing pores and voids‚ density is represented by the ratio of its mass and volume. It is given by the equation ρ= massvolume 1. The SI unit of density is kg/m3. However‚ its CGS units‚ g/cm3 or g/ mL‚ are the most commonly used ones in the laboratory. The
