Graphing to Determine the Density of Unknown Metals Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to graph and compare measurements of mass, volume, and density of two unknown metals. Relationships in data and physical appearances were observed and used to identify each metal. The density was shown as the slope of the graph as both were equivalent to mass divided by volume. The experimental density was then compared to the actual value and a percent error was determined. Materials: Equipment and materials
The first measurement that was retrieved as the mass of the metal object was 24.15 g. This was repeated for a second measurement of 23.85 g, and a final measurement of 23.82 g. All three mass measurements were recorded. Moving forward, to find the volume of the metal object, the graduated cylinder
3. Results and Discussion 3.1 Excess molar volume The experimental values of densities for pure components and their binary mixtures as a function of mole fraction at T = (303.15 to 313.15) K are given in Table 2. Excess molar volumes V^E were calculated from the measured values of density using the following equation: 〖 V〗^E = V_m-V_1 x_1-V_2 x_2 (1) V^E=((x_1 M_1+x_2 M_2)/ρ_m
In the experiment for “ If the Earth has layers , then the most dense material will be located towards the center.” the hypothesis was accepted. The data used from the experiment that supports the hypothesis was that the floating film canister density was 0.47 g/mL3 and it was the least dense out of the three. The floating film canister represented the crust of the Earth. The suspended film canister represented the mantle and it had a density of 0.80 g/mL3. The sunk film canister was representing
Density Exploration lab called for us to use two different methods to calculate the density of copper with various shapes and sizes. The second experiment called for us to devise an experiment to calculate the differences in density between soft drinks. Rather than calculating using two different methods to calculate for the same substance we had two different soft drinks, diet and non-diet Coca-Cola. We then used two volumetric pipets to measure the volumes of the soft drink, then placed the soda in
metal on a scale, then using water displacement, finding the volume of the metal. First, we decided to use metal B. We took out one piece of the metal and measured the mass by placing it on the scale. Then, we filled up the graduated cylinder with exactly 20 mL of water. After filling up the cylinder, we gently placed the metal inside and recorded the new volume of the water. Each time it was the same, 24.0mL. We then realized that the volume of metal B itself was 4.0mL. After doing the same process
Spiritual Truths about Surface Area and Volume All objects have a certain amount of volume. They also have their own surface area. These two geometric terms have their own unique formulas. The formula for the volume has special formulas for different objects. The equation for volume of cylindrical figures is V=A(B)*H; of conic figures is V= ⅓ A(B)*H; of spheres is (4/3)()(r3). The formula for the surface area has various equations for different objects. The equations for surface area of objects
Matthew Brayton Physics Measuring Lab Report: Purpose: To practice measuring, calculating uncertainty, and creating data tables. In this lab we measured 5 things - The surface area of the top of the one table, the volume of the room in square meters, the width of a single piece of paper, the length of my foot, and the circumference of my head. Data Table for the surface area of the top of one table: Length l /cm +/- 0.4cm Average Length (LAvg) / cm +- 0.4 cm Width (w) /cm +/- .3 cm Average
Moving forward, to find the volume of the metal object, the graduated cylinder was filled with water. The initial volume in the graduated cylinder read 21.0 mL. The metal object was then placed in the graduated cylinder carefully, as to not splash water. In the graduated cylinder of 21.0 mL, the metal object raised the water to 24.1 mL, thus the object was 3.1 mL for measurement 1. In a graduated cylinder of 21.0 mL, the metal object raised the water to 24.0 mL, thus the metal object was 3.0 mL for

object will stay constant. The Independent Variable of this experiment was the calculated density and the unidentified object given. The Dependant Variable for this experiment was the density. The Controlled Variable for this experiment was mass and volume. When identifying an unidentified object finding the density is the easiest way to do it because, any pure substance has a specific density at a specific temperature and each element and compound has a unique density associated
7-1: How does balance impact visual weight? Balance refers to the even distribution of weight in a composition. In artwork that is a sculpture and architecture, the actual weight is material in pounds or kg. In visual weight, the apparent “heaviness” or “lightness” of the shapes and forms arranged in the composition. The visual balance in composition by three ways—symmetrical balance, asymmetrical balance or radial balance. The first type of balance is symmetry; there are several symmetrical balances
Volume Lab In this four parted lab the purpose is to use measurement and water displacement and calculations to find the volume of various objects. Part A questions were how much drops of water were needed to make 1mL the original hypothesis made was ten drops however this was proven wrong once the data in which twenty drops of water rose 10 mL of water to 11 mL of water, nineteen to rise from 11 mL to 12 ml, and finally eleven drops of water to rise from twelve mL to thirteen mL. Once the average
able to package products properly if engineers know exactly how fast the item flows out of the machinery. Solids, liquids and gases are the commonly known states of matter that consist of distinguishable physical properties. A solid has a fixed volume and shape consisting of rigid particles locked into place. Because a solid’s particles have little free space to slide past one another, solids are not easily compressible and do not flow easily. An example of a solid is a couch. A
The question is, how does a physical or chemical change affect the mass of a substance within a closed system? To respond to this question, my group did a lab to determine whether or not the mass would change or not. Our lab was to have a plastic bag containing baking soda, then add a cup of vinegar and a block of clay to the mix. We made sure to weight every element separately and then add them up for our total mass of 31 grams before the reaction. During the reaction, as soon as the vinegar was
Density: A Characteristic Property I Purpose The purpose of this experiment is the density of six different substances. The way to figure this out is by finding the mass and volume of each of the substances. The hypothesis for the different experiments is that with each of the different substances and mixtures will be different depending on what they are. II Equipment The late nite lab was used to conduct this experiment. The product used were a balance, a graduated cylinder, water, Ethanol, and
mentions the Column volumes of Gel Filtration experiment: Void Volume (Vo), Elution Volume (Ve), Included Volume (Vi), Entire Volume (Vo + Vi), and Inert Volume (Vg). Void Volume (Vo) came out to be 1.25 ml. It was calculated by adding all the fractions that contained blue dextran. Blue Dextran was the biggest substance in size which made it impossible to fit in the available pore sizes of the beads. Void Volume represents the space between the beads in column. In addition, Elution Volume (Ve) came out
Water Olympics Lab Write Up In station one, we explored the idea of density. Density is the amount of cmpactness in an object. We used oil and water, and observed the density of each substance. when pouring the two back and forth, the oil moves slower and the water moves faster and more choppy then the vegetable oil. Seeing this, oil was presumed to be more dense, so I made a hypothesis that if testing the density of oil and water, oil is more dense than its counterpart of water. After a trial
“P1V1 = P2V2” shows that as the volume increases, the pressure of the gas decreases in proportion, as long as the temperature stays the same. The relationship between pressure and volume was first noticed by mathematician and astronomer Richard Towneley and experimenter Henry Power. Robert Boyle, a chemist and physicist, confirmed the discovery and published the results in 1662. According to science historians, Boyle’s assistant, Robert Hooke, built the experimental rig. The law is based on air
