Lab No.1: density‚ accuracy and precision Aim: to determine the relative precision and accuracy of different glassware items by calculating the density of a known substance. Introduction: the density of a substance is its mass per unit volume. (where P-density‚ m- mass and v- volume). Different materials usually have different densities and densities vary according to the pressure‚ temperature and purity of a substance. When measuring‚ there is always a small uncertainty or error and therefore

Basic Lab Measurements and Equipment Purpose This lab experiment displays the accuracy of scientific measuring equipment. This experiment also helps to familiarize the students with these instruments. Procedure: Measure Volumes and Masses 1. Obtain a 400mL beaker and record its mass in grams. 2. Add 40mL of water to the beaker and record the volume. 3. Records the beaker’s mass now with the added water 4. Transfer the water from the beaker to a 50mL graduated cylinder and record the measurement

MEASUREMENT OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: DENSITY Introduction According to the definition Density is the physical property that allows us to compare the mass of substances for a specific volume. In this Lab activity that took place in Deree College‚ Agia Paraskevi Campus we deal with the density of solids and density of liquids. The main purpose of this experiment is to understand what in reality density means‚ how we can measure it‚ how useful it is‚ what is the difference between density of solids

Experiment 1 Laboratory Techniques and Measurements Purpose: To determine measurements of different items that vary from solids to liquids and be able convert those values to other SI units of measurement. Procedure: I used a variety of scientific tools such as; a ruler‚ beaker‚ graduated cylinder‚ volumetric flask‚ thermometer‚ burner‚ and digital scale to find unknown values of measurements for each of the indicated items and

Experiment 1: Viscosity of Liquids Victoria Kulczak Lab Partners: Laina Maines & Heidi Osterman Date of Lab: 2/21/11 Due Date: 2/28/11 Abstract: The goal of this experiment was to determine the viscosity of given liquids. Two different methods were employed‚ the first measures time of flow of several methanol-water solutions‚ from point A to point B. The second method involves dropping a foreign object‚ in this case a sphere‚ into a cylinder of glycerol and measuring the time it takes for it to

Research: The word density means the degree of compactness of a substance. There is density in everything in your everyday life (matter.)The formula to find density is d=m/v.The density of solids and liquids is usually stated as g/cm3‚ while gases are usually stated as kg/m3. A real life example of density would be that ice floats on water because it is less dense than water‚ or it sinks because it is more dense than water. The only substance that breaks this rule is ice. Archimedes was

Measurement of Capacitance using Arduino – An Interrupt-based Approach: Part I SAIKAT PATRA‚ SHIBENDU MAHATA Introduction Capacitive sensors are widely employed to measure various physical and chemical process parameters such as displacement‚ acceleration‚ thickness‚ force‚ pressure‚ stress‚ level‚ and humidity. The measured value of capacitance is then calibrated in terms of the process parameter for indication and/or control applications. This project presents an interrupt-based approach by

We first were asked from our laboratory instructor to attain an unknown solid and were asked to note down the number of the solid. 2. Determine the mass of the unknown solid to the nearest 0.001 g and record it in the data table in the back of the laboratory workbook. 3. Then we determined the volume of the unknown solid by water displacement. We first filled
