This experiment measured the densities of liquids and solids. The mass and volume of water, an unknown liquid, and a metal were measured using a top-loading balance and flask. The density of each substance was calculated using the formula of density being the ratio of mass to volume. The densities calculated were 0.9978 g/cm3 for water, 1.04 g/cm3 for the unknown liquid, and 4.95 g/cm3 for the metal.

ABSTRACT

This is to determine liquids and metal. To accomplish this, the volume and the
mass of the liquid and solid substances were accurately measured. The mass of the
solid was measured using a top loading balance, and its volume was measured
using flask to see how much water had risen. To measure the water’s mass we used
top loading balance. After measuring the volume and mass of the liquid and solid,
then we calculated the densities by using the formula

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this experiment is to understand the meaning and significance of the
density of a substance. Density is a basic physical property of a homogeneous
substance; it is an intensive property, which means it depends only on the substance's
composition and does not vary with size or amount. The determination of density is
a nondestructive physical process for distinguishing one substance from another.
Density is the ratio of a substance's mass to its own volume.

EXPERIMENTAL

In the first part of the laboratory activity, a study of density will be conducted using
measurements from using top loading balance, we will measure the volume and mass
of the solid and liquids, we will use a flask and stopper then will put the water and
after we will put some metal, after that the unknown water, then after all of that we
calculate the mass, volume, and density
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Density is a standard physical property of a liquid or solid. The density of a subject


is expressed as a ratio of the subject’s mass to its’ volume in the following
formula. The mass of unknown samples are accurately obtained by weighing and
using the measuring by different methods

Conclusion

Using this experiment we are able to calculate and obtain the densities for the
unknown liquid and the metal
