Density

Master density calculations! This worksheet covers mass, volume, and measurement, ideal for 6th graders.

Density Watch the Density Video and answer the questions below. Density Match the following terms by drawing a line from the word to its definition. density mass divided by volume mass the amount of matter in an object volume the amount of space that matter takes up How to measure Volume of a Regular and Irregular Solid Watch the video then answer the following questions. What is the formula for finding the volume of a regular shaped solid? l x w x h mass / volume l x w add all the sides and multiply by 2 What procedure do we use to find the volume of an irregular solid? measure it as best as you can with a ruler place it in a box and esitmate l x w x h displacement What unit of measure is used when we find the volume of a solid? cm inch cm3 yards Why is the marble considered a irregular solid? because it is glass because it does not have flat or straight sides because it is breakable What unit is used when measuring using water displacement? cm3 mL m Archimedes and the Gold CrownRead the story then answer the questions. The mass of an object is 30 g and its volume is 5cm3What is the objects density? Show your work - density = m Since Archimedes could not melt the kings crown to determine its volume what method did he use to determine the gold crown's volume? If the real gold's density is 5.6 g and Archimedes calculated the density of the kings crown to be 4.7g Was the king's crown made of real gold? Calculate the density of a gold cube that is 2cm on each side and has the mass of 48g. Solve using the formula - d=m
