Conservation of Mass Flashcards
what is the letter that stands for density
p
what is the equation for density
p = mass/ volume
what is the unit for density
kg/ m cubed
what is the unit for volume
m cubed
what is the unit for mass
kg
what is the equation for working out the volume of regular objects
volume = length x width x height
what is the way of working out the volume for irregular objects
displacement
describe step 1 of the displacement method
fill displacement cab to top with water
describe step 2 of the displacement method
place object slowly into displacement can
describe step 3 of the displacement method
collect water that is displaced in a measuring cylinder
describe step 4 of the displacement method
measure the volume of water in ml
describe step 5 of the displacement method
convert ml to cm cubed to find volume of object
how many ml makes up 1 cubic cm
1 ml = 1 cm cubed
what is the chemical formula for calcium carbonate
CaCO3
what is the chemical formula for copper carbonate
CuCO3
