Density Density describes how heavy an object is compared to its size.

Volume, Mass, and Density Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object. Mass can be expressed.

Density. Definition Density: The amount of matter in a certain volume. (How much matter is in a given amount of space.) Example: Each of the spheres in.

Density. Different substances have different densities. The density of a material does not depend on the size or amount of the substance you have. Density.

Scientific Measurement Tools

What is MASS?

The measurement of how much matter something has

What is VOLUME?

The measurement of how much space something takes up

What tool do you use to find the mass of an object?

A Balance

What units are usually used with a balance?

Grams (g)

What tool is used to measure length?

A ruler or a meter stick

What units are used in science when measuring length?

centimeters (cm) millimeters (mm) and meters (m)

What tool is used to measure the volume of an irregular object?

A graduated cylinder (or “graduate”)

What units are usually used when measuring volume with a graduate?

Milliliters (ml)

What is the formula used to find the volume of a rectangular prism?

Length X Width X Height (v=L x W x H) 6x4x5= 120 cm³

What is this tool called?

A beaker

Go Forth and Measure!!!!
