Bell Work Date SPI Density 1) The volume of a cylinder is 20 cm 3, and the mass is 2 grams. Answer these two questions. Do not use a calculator Density= 20 2 Answer: 0.1 g/cm 3 Density= volume mass Volume: 3cm 3 Density: 3.6 g/cm3 2) The density of this cube is 3.6 g/cm3. The volume is 3 cm 3. Compute the density of this cylinder. Compute the mass. (Round to the nearest whole number) Mass = Volume x Density Mass = 3 x 3.6 DMV MVD Answer: 10.8 rounded to 11 g

SPI Density What is density?  Density is the amount of matter (mass) you have crammed in a given space (volume) Reminder: mass is how much matter is in an object  The unit for mass is grams (mg or g or kg) Reminder: volume is how much space it takes up (size)  Unit for solid volume is cubic meters (cm 3 or m 3 or km 3 )  Unit for liquid volume is liters (mL or L or kL) To compute density  - divide the mass by the volume of the object View this YouTube Video Clip: Link: What Is Density Video by TheScienceClassroom.orgWhat Is Density Video by TheScienceClassroom.org Science Notes

Mass: 19g Volume: 7cm 3 (A) (D) (C) (B) Mass: 12g Volume: 3cm 3 4 g/cm g/cm 3 Mass: 11g Volume: 3cm g/cm 3 Mass: 23g Volume: 5cm g/cm 3 Science Notes SPI Density Which cube below has the LEAST density? This time, do not use a calculator. Compute density on your paper while I work it on the board. Show all your work, and don't Forget Your Units! written like this… g/cm 3

Science Notes SPI Density Answer this question. Again, do not use a calculator, and show all your work. Compute the density on your paper while I work it on the board. Density= Density= volume mass Answer 9 g/cm 3

Science Notes SPI Density Answer this question. Do not use a calculator. Work it out on your paper while I do it on the board. Show all your work. Sample A 1 g/ml Sample B 0.8 g/ml Sample C 1.08 g/ml Sample D 0.9 g/ml Sample A D= Sample B D= Sample C D= Sample D D= Don't Forget Your Units! written like this… g/ml

SPI Density Science Notes Density In Liquids  Lower density liquids float on top of liquids with higher density  Higher density liquids will sink below lower density liquids View this YouTube Video Clip: Link: 7-Layer Density Column7-Layer Density Column

SPI Density Science Notes Density In Liquids  Lower density liquids float on top of liquids with higher density  Higher density liquids will sink below lower density liquids Here is a density column with 6 liquids  The top liquid (06)-least density  The bottom liquid (01)-greatest density One liquid has a density of 2.5 g/mL One liquid has a density of 0.7 g/mL One liquid has density of 1.7 g/mL Question: Which of these liquids would be on the bottom, and which one would be on top? Bottom: 2.5 g/mL (liquid 01) -greatest density Top: 0.7 g/mL (liquid 06) -least density
