Q

-Name the density triangle (mass – density x volume). Know the units of each value

A

Mass: Typically measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).
Volume: Typically measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) or cubic meters (m³).
Density: Typically measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Q

-Know the method in a lab to calculate the density of a regular and irregular objects

A

Sure, here’s a shorter version:

Regular Object:
1. Measure the mass and dimensions.
2. Calculate volume using dimensions.
3. Divide mass by volume to get density.

Irregular Object:
1. Measure the mass.
2. Submerge in water, measure volume displacement.
3. Divide mass by displacement to get density.
