Density Lab #1
Problem: How can we find the densities of common objects?
Materials: 5 Rulers, 1 stopper, 2 graduated cylinders, 1 cup, 1 funnel, 1
medicine dropper, Blocks A-C-Z, and one 100 g weight.
Procedure:
1. Find the density of Block A:
a. Volume= Length x Width x Height
V= _____ x ________ x _________ = __________ cm 3
b. Mass of Block : __________ g
c. D= M / v
D= _______ g/ _________cm3
D= _________ g/cm3
2. Find the density of block C:
a. Volume= Length x Width x Height
V= _____ x ________ x _________ = __________ cm 3
b. Mass of Block : __________ g
c. D= M / v
D= _______ g/ _________cm3
D= _________ g/cm3
3. Find the density of block Z:
a. Volume= Length x Width x Height
V= _____ x ________ x _________ = __________ cm 3
b. Mass of Block : __________ g
c. D= M / v
D= _______ g/ _________cm3
D= _________ g/cm3
4. Find the density of the rubber stopper:
a. V= V initial- V final= ___________ mL
b. Mass= _______ g
c. D= Mass/Volume= __________ g/________ mL= ________ g/mL
5. Find the density of the weight:
a. V= V initial- V final= ___________ mL
b. Mass= _______ g
c. D= Mass/Volume= __________ g/________ mL= ________ g/mL
Answer the following questions:
1. A loaf of bread has a volume of 2270 cm3 and a mass of 454 g.
