Yellow

Amount of mass within a given volume.

Density

Amount of matter in an object

Mass

Amount of mass within a given volume.

Density

Amount of matter in an object

Mass

Amount of space an object takes up

Volume

unit for measuring mass

Grams (g)

unit for measuring volume of a solid

Cubic Centimeters (cm3)

unit for measuring volume of a liquid

Milliliters (mL)

unit for measuring length (1/100th of a meter)

Centimeters (cm)

Formula for density

D=M x V

Formula for finding volume of regular shape

V = L x W x H

Process for finding the volume of an irregular solid

water displacement method

A measure of gravity on an object

Weight

1 g/mL (or 1 g/cm³)

Density of water

if density of object is less than dense than water, it will (sink or float)

float

anything that has mass and takes up space

Matter

If the density of an object is more dense than water, it will (sink or float)

Sink

What is the relationship between 1 mL and 1 cm³

equivalent (equal)

What is the volume of the ring?

4mL

D = M / V D = 10 g / 5 mL D = 2 g/cm³ - If the water level rose 5 mL when the key was placed in the graduated cylinder and had a mass of 10 g on the scale, what is its density?

If solids are usually more dense than liquids, why does ice float?

Water is an exception to the rule. Unlike most substances, water becomes less dense when it freezes due to hydrogen molecules moving further apart instead of closer together.

Which liquid has the highest density?

Honey (the higher the density the lower it drops)
