What is used to measure the volume of a liquid?
A burette/pipette
How do you find the volume of an irregular solid?
Method of displacement (overflow can)
What is density?
The density of a substance is its mass per unit volume
What is the S.I unit of density?
Kg/m-3
What is the formula to find somethings density?
Mass divided by volume
To find the density of a liquid you must….
1) use a burette/pipette to find its volume
2) weigh a beaker
3) weigh the beaker with the liquid in it
4) take the weight of the beaker from the weight of the beaker with the liquid in it to get the mass of the liquid
5) divide the mass by the volume
How do you find the density of an irregular solid?
1) Weigh the object to get its mass
2) get the volume by using the displacement method
3) divide the mass by the volume
