  1. Living By ChemistrySECOND EDITION Unit 1: ALCHEMY Matter, Atomic Structure, and Bonding

  2. Lesson 4: Mass Communication • Mass and Volume

  3. ChemCatalyst • Which has more mass and weighs more, 5 kilograms of bricks or 5 kilograms of feathers? Explain your thinking. • 2. Would it hurt more to be hit with 5 pounds of feathers or 5 pounds of bricks? Explain your thinking.

  4. Key Question • How do you determine the masses and volumes of different substances?

  5. You will be able to: • measure mass using a balance • measure the volume of regularly and irregularly shaped objects

  6. Prepare for the Lab • Work in groups of four.

  7. Prepare for the Lab (cont.) • In this lab, you will be measuring volume with a graduated cylinder. • To the nearest hundredth of a milliliter, the volume of liquid is 5.52 mL.

  8. Discussion Notes • Mass is commonly measured in units of grams (g) or kilograms (kg). • 1 kg = 1000 g

  9. Discussion Notes (cont.) • Volume is a measure of the amount of space occupied by something. • 1000 mL = 1 L • Mass: A measure of the quantity of matter in an object. • Volume: The amount of space a sample of matter occupies. • 1 mL = 1 cm3

  10. Wrap Up • How do you determine the masses and volumes of substances? • Mass is a measure of the amount of substance. Mass can be measured using an electronic or triple beam balance. • Volume is the amount of space occupied by an object. The volume of a liquid can be measured in a graduated cylinder. • Objects with similar volumes can have different masses, and vice versa.

  11. Check-In • A penny has a mass of 2.498 g. • a. What is the mass to the nearest tenth of a gram? • b. How would you determine the volume of a penny? • c. What is the difference between mass and volume? • d. Suppose you find that the golden penny has a mass of 2.6 g. If you compare it with the mass of this penny, what can you conclude?
