Physical Properties

• Mass, Volume, and Density

8
Mass

• What do you know about mass?

9
Mass

• Measure of the amount of matter that makes up an
  object.
• Units used to designate mass are kilograms (kg)
• You can measure an objects mass using a balance
  (triple beam, electronic, spring).

10
Volume

• What is Volume?

11
Volume

• Volume is a measurement of the three-dimensional
  space occupied by an object.
• Units include cm3 and mL.
• Solids, liquids, and gases all have volume, but
  you measure each differently.
• Solid calculate geometrically or displacement
• Liquid measure using a graduated cylinder

12
Density

• How does Density relate to Mass and Volume?

13
Density

• The amount of matter in a given space.
• Does this sound familiar?
• Concentration or Compactness
• The unit for density is or .

14
Mass, Volume, and Density

• Mass volume and density are directly related.
• Practice Exercise
• Measure the mass and volume of an object in the
  room.
• Calculate the Density of the Object.
• What are the units associated with this
  calculation?

15
Formulae

• Density Mass / Volume
• Mass Density x Volume
• Volume Mass / Density

16
Practice Problems
