Definitions • Density- The amount of Mass per Volume (D=m/V) Water = 1.0 g/cm3 • Volume – the measurement of the space that an object occupies (3D - LxWxH) Discussed in MATH • Mass – the amount of matter in an object
Techniques • Length • Never use the end of the ruler. Why? • Do not round, always try to be as accurate 1.75 vs. 2.0 • Volume • Do not round, always try to be as accurate 1.75 vs. 2.0 • Use the bottom of the meniscus when measuring with graduated cylinders. Use clickers. What is the volume?
Begin With Partners • Begin completing the hand out on Measurement of Length and Volume. • Work in partners, be prepared to switch half-way through. (Clothes, Bday Month) • What isn’t completed is HOMEWORK • IN ADDITION, begin completing the pretest handout. Due by Friday in class. Not graded, but benefiting you if you take it seriously.
