Density Practice
Density is dependent on an object's mass only volume only mass and volume What is the density of a metal sample with a mass of 240 g and a volume of 12 mL? 2 g 20 g 0.02 g 480 g Where is the densest layer located? At the top of the column At the bottom of the column In the middle of the column Matching Match the unit with the measurement g grams mass mL volume g density Fill in the blank with the correct answer. Spelling counts! Choose (type in) float or sink. An object with a density of 2 g will sink when placed in a beaker of water. Which of the following would be the best tools to measure the density of a solid block (a rectangle)? a metric ruler and a triple beam balance a triple beam balance and a thermometer a meter stick and a spring scale To find the volume of an irregular object like a rock, you would use.... the formula length x width x height water displacement a ruler Volume Question Use the image above to answer the following:A student needs to determine the volume of an irregular object. The original volume of water is 4.8 mL. The student drops the object into the graduated cylinder and the new volume is 5.6 mL. What is the volume of the object? 5.6 mL 1.2 mL 0.8 mL A student found the rock shown below and used a triple beam balance it to determine its mass. After finding the mass of the rock above, what steps should the student take to find its density? determine its volume by how much water it displaces, then divide mass by volume determine its volume by multiplying length x width x height, then divide mass by volume crush the rock to a powder, measure its volume in a graduated cylinder, then divide mass by volume Predict whether the following items will sink or float in freshwater. Click on each item, then choose sink or float to place it in the correct column. SINK Gold 19.3 g corn syrup 1.38 g FLOAT corn oil 0.93 g wood 0.85 g
