Activity #8 U Are So Dense!
Middle schoolers watch as the teacher demonstrates: if a single liquid is placed in a U-shaped tube, the level of liquid on both sides are the same. When the mass is greater on one side than the other, liquid is pushed from one side to...
Curated OER
Density of Solids and Liquids
Students calculate the density of regular and irregular solids and liquids. They relate the term dense to science as well as its literal meaning that society uses it as everyday. A worksheet is completed on density.
Curated OER
The Weight of Water
Students examine how salt water is more dense than fresh water. They discuss how manatees need to float and sink, conduct a sink or float experiment, and conduct an experiment with eggs and salt and fresh water.
Curated OER
Solids
In this solids worksheet, students explain why solids are more dense than other states of matter. Students compare ionic solids and covalent network solids. This worksheet has 6 short answer questions.
