Use water displacement and a mass balance to determine the density of various objects in this interactive simulation.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Covers density and provides examples of density calculations.

Through this curricular unit, students are introduced to the important concept of density. The focus is on the more easily understood densities of solids, but students may also explore the densities of liquids and gases. Students devise...

Students discover the concept that density is a characteristic property of water by measuring the volume and mass of water and calculating its density.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students will learn the Ideal Gas Law, and know which of the different values for the ideal gas constant to use in a given...

In this interactive lesson, learn what the "physical properties" of matter are and how can they be measured and observed.

Students explore the meaning of density and use their math skills to graph mass/volume data, write an equation for a line, and interpret the slope of the line. Students also find the density of two unknown mineral samples and use those...

In this demonstration, students will brainstorm to find a solution as to why Diet Coke floats and Coke sinks. Through this exercise students will arrive at a definition of density.

Students will learn the concept of volume by determining the amount of sand that is needed to fill the long-jump pit at their school (or any rectangular- or square-shaped container). This lesson will explain the importance of knowing how...

[Free Registration/Login Required] Find out what mathematical function to perform when converting between particles and moles. Then answer one challenge question about the topic.

In this activity, learners will measure a variety of different materials from the classroom to determine how much matter is found in these materials then determine the mass of these materials using the same volume for each. The data will...

In this activity, the students will discover the relationship between an object's mass and the amount of space it takes up (its volume). The students will learn about the concept of displacement and how an object can float if it...

In this interactive module you will be introduced to a unit on fluid dynamics. Learn how an object's density relates to its mass and volume by completing various activities and interactives.

A video and a short quiz on the properties of matter, covering mass, density, weight, and volume.

Density is a ratio of the mass/people/things to volume/area. Given the density and one of the two quantities in the ratio, solve for the other quantity in the ratio.

This problem-solving activity demonstrates the concepts of mass, volume, and density and how they relate to displacement.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of density and how to calculate density.

Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Density will be introduced to students by a demonstration of coke verses diet coke. The teacher will then solve density problems for the students on the board. The class will then complete a lab on...

This website provides explanations of mass, weight, and density with directions for building simple scales and balances. Provided as encouragement to teach these concepts to young children, it offers a good review for older students.

Students learn how to measure the volume and mass of an object and use that to compute density. They will then use that density to talk about experimental errors and accuracy of measurements.

In this activity you will: Model data using a linear equation; interpret the slope and intercept values from a linear model; identify a characteristic property of a substance; and examine the relationship between mass, volume, and density.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Students will be able to change the mass and volume of an item and observe if it floats, sinks, or remains at a certain depth in the water. Students will also be able to change the liquid in level 2.

Five lessons about the study of fluid mechanics. The unit concludes with students applying what they have learned to determine the stability of individual above-ground storage tanks given specific storm conditions so they can analyze...

In this introductory lab activity, students will collect data that will graphically illustrate the relationship between mass and volume in determining the density in chemistry. Based on density, students will seek to determine a...
