6. F) OK, here is a practical problem in which you will combine all of your skills.  
1) A ring, supposedly made of pure silver (Ag) has a mass of grams. When its volume is taken by water displacement, it is found to have a volume of 1.95 mL. Calculate the density of the ring:
D = m/V
D = ( g) / (1.95 mL)
D = g/mL
D= g/mL

7. 2) Based on the actual density of silver (Ag) found on Reference Table S, could this ring actually be made out of silver? Briefly explain your answer:
Yes –
Ag has a listed density of on Reference Table S.

8. Density and Thickness of Aluminum Lab
Objective: I will successfully use known properties of Aluminum to determine the thickness of a sheet of aluminum foil to the correct level of precision. Pre-Lab: Why are you determining the density of aluminum in this lab? How does the density of aluminum foil differ from the density of an aluminum block? Explain your answer.

9. Once the density of aluminum is calculated, what data will you need to determine the thickness of the aluminum foil?
Remember: D=m/V and V = L*W*H (H is the thickness of the aluminum foil)

10. Knowing that D=m/V and V = L. W
Knowing that D=m/V and V = L*W*H , how can you rearrange the formulas to calculate the thickness of the aluminum foil. So….what do you need to know?

11. So procedures… Glassware is being used so…. goggles
Levels of precision for out instruments??

12. Clean up
All aluminum blocks get dried and returned to teacher. Graduated cylinders, rulers and balances get returned to side of lab. Return to seat to work on lab. Goggles are removed only upon teacher announcement that room is clean
