LAB 03 - Density
LAB Starter
• Read the Pre-Lab and answer the following:– Make a prediction about the density of oil and
water based off the Pre-Lab reading– Write the density formula
• You have 2 minutes to read and answer the 2 questions.
• You are silent and seated.
OBJECTIVE
• SWBAT – Apply the formula of density– Explain how density can help them predict how a
liquid will behave. – Apply density to explain a real-life event
AGENDA
–Pre-Lab–Lab
IMPORTANT DATES
• Test 01 – Friday
Lab 03
Density of Liquid
• Do you think oil and water have the same density?
• Which one would float?• Why?

The Liquid Layer
Prediction
The Liquid Layers - Prediction
The Liquid Layer
Experiment
The Liquid Layers – Actual
CONCLUSION
• Did conclusion supports prediction? Why or why not?
MENISCUS
• Read the graduated cylinder by reading the meniscus (the lowest portion of the convex dip of the liquid)– Meniscus form because of adhesion force is
stronger than cohesion force
Application
• Assume that a test tube was filled with mercury (a liquid metal with density 13.6 g/mL), water (density measured above), and maple syrup (1.4 g/mL). Draw a diagram to show how the liquid will be layered. Make sure to label the diagram. Support your drawing with evidence. Write 1-3 sentences. Make sure to include a discussion with density.
DRAWINGS
Bringing it in
• Let revisit the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill. – Do you think your prediction is still valid after
what you have learned and observed in class? Why or why not? Provide support using the word density.
Exxon Valdez - continue
• Explain how the density of the liquid (oil and water) could have negative impact on the wildlife, especially the birds. Explain in 2-4 sentences using support from the experiment.
CLEAN UP
• CLEAN UP AROUND YOU• Material managers – bring the equipment
