Density- Cornell notes page 21

Density • Physical property of matter • amount of matter in a given amount of space. • (amount of matter is called “mass, ” and amount of space an object takes up is called “volume”) • Density= Mass/Volume • http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v =FSup. QZQqa. Pk

Density • How do we find mass? • How do we find volume?

Density • How do we find mass? – triple beam balance, scale • How do we find volume? – multiply length, width, and height – use displacement method • 1 m. L= 1 cm 3 (centimeter cubed/cubic centimeter= cc)

Density • Water has a given density of 1 g/m. L • Things that are less dense will float on water. • Things that are more dense will sink.

Back to the Egg… 1. Did the egg change? 2. In Cup #1 is the egg more dense or less dense than the liquid? 3. In Cup #2 is the egg more dense or less dense than the liquid? 4. Is the liquid in Cup #1 more dense or less dense than Cup #2?
