1 Lab 2 Density of a Solid and Liquid Objective - Measure the density of aluminum and water.

2 Pre-lab Questions - 1. What unit is used for mass? For volume? 2. What instrument is used to measure mass? Volume? 3. How is the density of a material calculated? 4. Which material is more dense: aluminum or water? Explain how you know. 5. Explain what is technically wrong with stating that “Aluminum is heavier than water.”

3 Experiment - Part 1 – Density of Aluminum Record any data and procedures necessary to calculate the density of aluminum.

4 Part 2 – Density of Water Record any data and procedures necessary to calculate the density of water.

5 Analysis - 1.Calculate the density of aluminum. 2.Calculate the density of water. Results -

DENSITY. Density is the measure of mass per unit volume of substance. So, density is a measure of the amount of matter (particles) in a given volume (space)
