1. Activity – Making Measurements
I. Wood Block
mass =
__________ g
volume =
l x w x h
__________ cm
l =
w =
h =
__________ cm
__________ cm
Calculate density =
mass
volume

2. II. Water
massFC& Water =
__________ g
__________ g
massFC =
__________ g
mass Water =
__________ mL
volume =
Calculate density =
mass
volume

3. III. Measuring Volume
- Beakers vs. Graduated Cylinders
Measure 100 mL of tap water using a beaker,
then transfer and measure with the 100 mL
Graduated Cylinder
150 ml beaker
__________ mL
250 ml beaker
__________ mL
__________ mL
400 ml beaker

4. Most graduated glassware is marked
“TC” or “TD.”
What do you think “TC” means?
What do you think “TD” means?
Which glassware (“TC” or “TD”) do you think is more expensive? Why?
