Aluminum has a mass of 13. 5g and a volume of 5. 25mL Aluminum has a mass of 13.5g and a volume of 5.25mL. Calculate the density of this piece of aluminum. D = _M_ V = __13.5g__ 5.25mL = 2.57g/mL

Which unit is larger: centigram, milligram?

Aluminum has a density of 2. 669g/mL Aluminum has a density of 2.669g/mL. Suppose a student measures the volume to be 3.2mL. Calculate the mass of this piece of aluminum. M = DV M = (2.669g/mL)(3.2mL) = 8.54g

Which unit is larger: meter, decimeter?

A chemistry student mixes rubbing alcohol, water, and honey in a beaker. She noticed that the honey is at the bottom of the beaker, the water is in the middle and the rubbing alcohol is at the very top. Explain this observation in relation to the relative densities of rubbing alcohol, water, and honey. Rubbing alcohol is less dense than water since it is on top of the water. Honey is more dense than water since it is on the bottom of the beaker.

The student was precise – all 3 measurements are close to one another. A student measured the volume of an aluminum block three times and recorded the following results: 6.42cm3, 6.41 cm3, and 6.40 cm3. The actual volume of the aluminum was 12.5 cm3. Comment on the accuracy and precision of the data. The student was precise – all 3 measurements are close to one another. The student was NOT accurate- she is about 6 cm3 from the actual measurement of 12.5 cm3
