LAB Density, Specific Gravity, Temperature, Specific Heat Flashcards
Density of Liquid
- the certain volume is poured into the container
* the mass of a liquid is measured by (mass of container with liquid) - (mass of container)
Density
- every substance has a unique density
- g/mL or g/cm3
Density
formula
D=mass(g)/volume(mL or cm3)
Specific Gravity
compares the density of a sample to the density of water (1.00 g/mL)
- equates to density of a substance
- used for urine analysis
Specific Gravity
formula
Specific = D of sample(g/mL)/ 1.0(g/mL)
gravity
Volume Displacement
when a solid is submerged in a known amount of water
final water vol - initial water vol = vol of solid
Specific Heat
the amount of heat in calories or joules that raises the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree celcius
cal to Cal
1000 cal = 1 Cal
cal to kcal
1000 cal = 1 kcal
cal to joules
1 cal = 4.184 joules
Cal to joules
1 Cal = 4184 joules
Cal to kcal to cal
1 Cal = 1 kcal = 1000 cal
kjoule to joule
4.184 kjoule = 4184 joules
Cal/kcal to kJoules
1 kcal = 4.184 kJoule
