what unit measure mass | grams |
what unit measures temperature | celsius |
what unit measures volume | liter |
measure length of desk | use metric ruler to measure length in cm |
measure volume of marble | measure at meniscus the ml of water in graduated cylinder, then add marble, measure again and calculate difference in ml, record answer |
measure mass of a beaker | calibrate balance, make sure triple balance pointer is at zero, put beaker on balance, move weights until balance pointer at zero again and record answer |

what tool measure volume of a liquid | a graduated cylinder |
define meniscus | curved surface formed when liquid poured into graduated cylinder, we measure bottom of meniscus |
where are volume reading made in graduated cylinder | at bottom of meniscus |
define mass | the amount of matter in an object, mass not affected by gravity |
what does not affect mass | gravity |
what does it mean to calibrate pan balance | make sure pointer at zero |
how do you find the volume of an object if it does not have straight sides | the graduated cylinder is used to find the volume of objects without straight sides, the volume of an object is equal to the amount of water it displaces |
defines displace | moves |
steps to measure volume of object without straight sides | put enough water in graduated cylinder to cover object, record volume in mL, slide drop object into graduated cylinder, record volume in mL, subtract 1st reading from 2nd reading to find volume of object, record difference |
