Clean upCarefully place potato basein trash container…dropping it will splash the food coloring out of the straws!
This beaker is filled with marbles. Can I fit anymore into this space?
Now there is more stuff in here than before. Can I add anything more to this space?
This is the same amount of space as when I started with just the marbles, but now there is a LOT more stuff in here. Jar is filled with water. It has dissolved some of the sugar at the top of the beaker.
Scientists have a word to describe how much stuff is in a certain amount of space ~ density density = stuff space
These terms don’t seem “official.” In math, what is space called? density = stuff space
volume density = stuff = space volume
What do we callstuffin science? density = stuff = space volume
Matter which has mass density = stuff = mass space volume
density = mass volume
Isopropyl alcohol Fresh water Salt water Glycerin Salt water is more dense that fresh water, because in the same volume (amount) there are dissolved salts and other substances along with the water molecules. This means there is more mass in the same volume ~ making salt water more dense.
