    exercise is learning how to use a micropipette to find the density of different liquids, and be able to identify an unknown liquid using density. Also, learn how to evaluate the experimental accuracy, precise, and error of small volumes used in biochemistry based on the theory that 1gram of water at room temperature equal 1millimeter (#1 Bruice). If the density of water that determined after the experiment

    The Density Den (Experiment 4.3) Taken from Obook (aim, materials and method) Date: Monday 15th June Partners: Nicole and Grace Introduction: - When people think of Archimedes they often think of the famous tale of his bath, and how he helped discover density whilst unknowingly using the displacement method. - Density is the mass and volume of substances which is different in the 3 states of matter. The density of the 3 matters can often be affiliated with the amount of space in-between the particles

    Purpose: The lab was performed for the purpose of calculating the density of each type of object and determining if calculating the volume, and therefore the density, of two cubes can be more effectively done with a ruler (through the direct method) or by water displacement. Materials: 1 Scale 1 Rock 2 Corks 2 Aluminum Cubes 4 Paper clips 2 Marbles 1 50 mL graduated cylinder 1 25 mL graduated cylinder 1 Calculator 1 Ruler Procedure: 1. Weigh and record the mass of each pair of objects (only use

    Have you ever wondered why your cereal clusters together after milk is poured or why it sticks to the side of your bowl? Even if you try to pull them apart, they come together again. This is a spectacle that happens every day but we just don’t really notice it. Most people don’t really realize that it’s happening everyday. Using fluid mechanics, we can determine why floating objects come together due to surface tension, viscosity and buoyancy (Grayson, 2014). This cheerios effect also applies to

    Questions will be out of order. How does measurements of SI help with business and commerce? Companies need the exact amount and ingredients of what to put in their product. Such as a can of soda. A can of soda normally contains 12 fluid ounces. 12 fluid ounces is approximately 354 grams. These companies are using some sort of measurement system. We use something called "imperial system" where as most countries use metric system. Governments don't want confusion to be amongst them, so they only adopt

    In order to investigate factors influencing the flow of granular materials such as sand and pea gravel, researchers used the funnel apparatus shown below. Very small ceramic beads were placed in the top funnel. The top funnel was then sealed. The beads passed through the apparatus and fell into a container on top of a digital balance. A computer recorded the mass of the collected ceramic beads over a period of time. Funnel apparatus drawing Ceramic beads with diameters from 0.15 to 1.00 millimeter

    5861 Are these Objects Made of the Same Material? Every substance has its own unique density due to all of the atoms mass, size, and arrangement being different for each atom. Density is the relationship between two characteristics of matter which are mass and the occupied space. Density is a characteristic property, meaning the density of a substance will stay the same. In an investigation the objects densities would be calculated to determine whether the objects are made of the same material. The

    Aptanta 9B Mr. Anthony Science- Physics The difference in density between salt water and tap water I. Problem: • Will an egg float on fresh water or tap water? II. Background Information: Density is a measurement of how matter is in a certain volume/object. It is basically the compactness of an object. If the molecules are closer to each other, therefore it’s denser. If you compare a cuboid Styrofoam and a cuboid metal, the metal would weigh heavier because it is denser. The denser the object,

    accepted. The data collected during the experiment accepted the hypothesis was that the sand from film canister #1 had a density of 0.32 g/mL3 and the canister would float on top of the water. The sand from film canister #2 had a density of 0.99 g/mL3 and the top of the canister would be right below the surface if the water. Finally, the sand from film canister #3 had a density of 1.17 g/mL3 and the canister sunk to the bottom of the container of water. Based upon the data collected from the lab,
