Density & Temperature Unit 1: Measurement & matter Aim: What determines the density of a substance?
Density Ratio of the mass of an object to its volume 2
Density Commonly used to identify substances Explains why things float 3
How Does an Ice Cube Float? AB C 4

Density of water is 1 g/mL Relative: In relation to More Dense > 1 g/mL Less Dense < 1 g/mL Density of Water
Which will float? Object with higher density than water? Or Object with lower density than water? 7
Density & Volume Increase in volume, decreases the density What type of relationship is this? Indirect Inversely proportional 8

Density & Mass As mass increases, density increases What type of relationship is this? Directly proportional 12
1. the “Compactness” of an object 2. Mass of particles there are per unit of area 3. How an object uses its space Density [in words]
Density [Visual]:
Calculating density 15 V m d
Example #1 An unknown substance has a mass of 8.7g and a volume of 3.2cm 3. What is the density of the substance in sig figs? A: 2.7 g/cm 3
Example #2 What is the volume of a pure silver coin that has a mass of 14g in sig figs? The density of silver (Ag) is 10.5g/ml A: 1.3 `ml
Volume: the amount of space an object takes up What are two ways we measure volume? Video
Measuring Volume 19 Volume [=] mL [=] cm 3 With a ruler: V= L x W x H [=] cm x cm x cm With glassware (water displacement): 1mL [=] 1cm 3
Displacement Usually used for awkward shaped objects 20 Final Volume Initial Volume Volume Of Object =
Temperature Measure of how hot/cold an object is 21
Devised by Swedish Astronomer Anders Celsius. Temperature scale most commonly used for scientific work; freezing point of water =0˚C ; boiling point =100˚C Proposed by Lord William Kelvin 0 K= lowest possible temperature or absolute zero
