1. Volume
Part I

2. What is Volume? AND ? Just how much space does this object take up???
Volume is the amount of space an object takes up
Just how much space does this object take up??? ?
AND
Can we use the
formula? Why or
Why not?
V = L x W x H

3. How can we determine the amount of space this object takes up?
Suppose you have a beaker of water….
300 mL
– 250 mL
50 mL
What would happen if I drop this object in the beaker?
350 mL
300 mL
200 mL
150 mL
100 mL
50 mL
350 mL
300 mL
250 mL
200 mL
150 mL
100 mL
50 mL
250 mL

4. Let’s try a couple!
The beaker has 227 mL of water. An object is placed in the beaker. The beaker now reads 245 mL. How much space does the object take up?
The beaker has 207 mL of water. An object is placed in the beaker. The beaker now reads 239 mL. How much space does the object take up?
239 mL
- 207 mL
245 mL
- 227 mL
32 mL
18 mL
