Mass Volume Density

Question 0

4 tools to measure mass of an object

Answer 0

Double pan
Quad balance
Triple beam balance
Scale

Question 1

What is mass

Answer 1

Amount of matter in an object

Question 2

How does mass differ from weight

Answer 2

Weight is how much gravity is pulling and mass is how much matter there is in something

Question 3

How do you measure mass on a triple beam balance?

Answer 3

Start all riders at zero, move the 100gram rider first but don’t go over the pointer, then move the 10 gram rider but don’t go over the pointer, with the top of our pen or pencil move the 1 gram order until the two pointers line up.

Question 4

Why is it important to make the scale zero before taking measurements?

Answer 4

So you can get the correct measurement

Question 5

How do you find the mass of water

Answer 5

You put the empty beaker on scale,
find the mass of the beaker,
Fill beaker with water,
Subtract the two masses the answer is the mass of water alone

Question 6

What tools do we use to measure weight

Answer 6

Electronic and spring scales

Question 7

Define volume

Answer 7

The amount of space an object takes up

Question 8

What is a regular object

Answer 8

Something that has a solid a

Shape

Question 9

What tool is used to measure the volume of a regular object

Answer 9

Ruler

Question 10

What is the equation to find the volume of regular object

Answer 10

Length time width times height

Question 11

What are the names for two tools you use to measure volume of a liquid

Answer 11

Graduated cylinder and Beaker

Question 12

Where do measure volume of a Liquid from

Answer 12

Meniscus

Question 13

Liquid volume is mainly measured in…

Answer 13

Liters or milliliters

Question 14

What is an irregular object

Answer 14

Something that Has an irregular shape that can’t be measured using a ruler

Question 15

What is the name for the process of measuring volume of an irregular object

Answer 15

Displacement method

Question 16

What tool would you use to measure volume of a shell

Answer 16

Graduated cylinder or beaker

Question 17

How do you measure the volume of an irregular shaped object

Answer 17

Fill graduated cylinder with water
Read meniscus
Put object in
Read meniscus again
Subtract to measurements

Question 18

How do you find density of an object

Answer 18

Find mass w/ balance
Find volume w/ ruler
Divide m\ v

Question 19

What is the equation for finding density

Answer 19

Mass/volume

Mass divided by volume

Question 20

Density is measure in…

Answer 20

g/cm3

Question 21

What is the density of water

Answer 21

1.0g/ml

Question 22

What do you call an object that does not float or sink

Answer 22

Suspended

Question 23

Given the density of an object how do you determine if it will float or sink in water

Answer 23

If it has a density less than one it will float
