Density Science Quiz
Question | Answer |
---|---|
If you double the amount of a sample before you find it's density, the density will? | Stay the same. |
If a piece of metal is heated so it expands what effect will this have on it's density? | The density will decrease. |
Why would ice float above water? | Ice would float above water if it had a lesser density then the water. |
Would all aluminum pieces have the same density regardless of their size? | Yes as long as nothing was done to one and not the others. |
Out of alcohol, water, and ice which would be on the bottom? | Water because it had the greatest density. |
How could you more accurately determine the density of ice? | By placing it in a liquid with a lesser density so that you don't have to push the top of the down by applying pressure which would throw of the reading. |
How do you find the mass of a solid? | By using a triple beam balance. |
How do you find the density of an object? | By using the formula- D=M/V |
How can density be expressed? | g/cm (grams per centimeter cubed) or g/mL(grams per milliliter) |
How do you find volume? | Length x Width x Height |
What is mass measured in? | Grams. |
What is volume? | Amount of space an object takes up,. |
How do you measure volume of liquid? | Put liquid in graduated cylinder and measure. |
What do you look at to find the accurate reading of the volume of water or irregular shaped objects? | Place liquid or object in graduated cylinder and look at the bottom of the curve a.k.a meniscus. |
What is water displacement? | Water displacement is a term to describe what happens to water when an object is submerged into it. If you drop something into water it forces the water to move causing displacement of the water. |
What is a meniscus? | Bottom of the curved line when your reading a graduated cylinder. |
How do you find the mass of a liquid? | measure the mass of a graduated cylinder on a triple balance. Find the mass of the cylinder and liquid then subtract. |
