IB MYP 8 Forces In Action unit

volume

amount of space inside of something

density

how much something in mass measurements are condensed into a length measurement.

states of matter on density

solid most dense, liquid less dense, gas least dense.

states of matter oddity

water is an oddity as its solid form in ice is less dense than the liquid form.

measuring density

mass/volume

density common unit

grams per centimetres cubed

balance

tool used to measure mass

regular solid measuring volume

use a polyhedron formula for volume

irregular solid measuring volume

compare the capacity of a liquid with and without the solid and divide the difference by the solid’s mass.
