Intensive vs. extensive properties
Intensive
property: a physical
property that does NOT depend on
how much of a substance you have.
Ex: temperature, velocity, melting
point
Extensive
property: a property that
DOES depend on how much you have.
Ex: mass, length, volume

The phenomenon
In
1982, the density of pennies
changed.
+
Your challenge:
Determine, empirically, the
density of
pennies before and after 1982.
1. Write a materials list and procedure.
Include ALL your steps. Be thorough!
2. Carry out your procedure.
3. Record and organize data into a chart
and graphs. Describe your data in a
paragraph.
4. Analyze your data in a paragraph.
5. Make a conclusion summarizing your
data and answering questions.
+
Some details
How
can you determine the volume of
a penny?
Displacement
Calculate
the density of 2, 3, …10 pre1982 pennies, and 2, 3, …10 post-1982
pennies. Make a neat table and
graph.

Things to write in your notebook:
 An
excellent materials list and procedure
 Complete
data tables (title, headings, units,
calculations, NEATLY!)
 Complete
graphs: mass vs. volume and
EITHER mass vs. density or volume vs.
density, with title, axis labels and units
A
written description of your data.
A
written analysis of your data
A
conclusion based on guiding questions.

Your homework
To
write a lab report.
First
Draft (neatly hand-written or
typed) due:

So, is
density intensive or extensive?
How do you know? Discuss your
graph, and what a graph of the other
type might look like.

With your group:
Fix
your graphs. Draw a best-fit line.
Write
a one-paragraph analysis for
each graph. Describe BOTH lines
for each graph.
Trend
Shape of line
Outliers: points that are way off the
line.

Title
Your
lab report should be titled with a
title of your choosing.
It
should be relevant to the lab and
should not just be the same as the title
of a handout your teacher gave you.
Do
not have it on a separate title
page.
+
Background Information
Explain
any important concepts that
are central to understanding the
experiment.
In
paragraph form, define any
scientific terms necessary for
understanding the lab.
+
Objective (NO hypothesis)
Explain
what the purpose of the
experiment or what goals you have in
completing the lab. What do you
hope to accomplish?
(No
hypothesis)

Procedure
 For
a lab where you have designed the
procedure, include a detailed and
complete account of every single step
you completed during the lab, including
how to make calculations. Be sure to
include proper names for pieces of
equipment!
 If
you have followed a procedure given
by your teacher, write a summary of
what you did. Do not rewrite the given
procedure word for word.
+
Data and Results
 Include
any charts, graphs, tables,
technical drawings, observations, or
diagrams in this section. Include a one
sentence caption for each.
 Data
should be presented neatly, and
with the use of computer software when
possible.
 If
any calculations were necessary
during this lab, include them here.
 DO
NOT explain the data.
+
Analysis
Describe
any patterns or trends in the
data. Point out any relevant
characteristics and comparisons that
you see. Do not attempt to explain
them, simply note them.
Note
the existence of any data that
does not seem to fit the overall
patterns/trends.
+
Conclusions
 Draw
conclusions from the patterns and
observations you noted in the analysis section.
Explain why the patterns you saw occurred.
 Was
the experiment successful at completing
the objectives above? Explain why or why not.
 Reflect
on your hypothesis. Was it correct?
Why or why not?
 Was
there any significant error in your
experiment? Propose some possible sources of
error and explain how they might be improved.
 Answer
questions (4) in lab handout in
paragraph form.
+
On a separate sheet of paper…
Write
the first draft of your lab report.
Work
on your own.
You may listen to music as long as I
can’t hear it.
Label
each section.
Be
careful to include EVERY part
listed in your lab report guide.
First
