Density DEF: amount of mass in a certain volume.
Density is a physical property. Solids have the highest density. Gases have the lowest density. The density of a substance is the same,
regardless of the sample size.
Variable Units
D = densityliquids/gases – g/ml
solids – g/cm3
m = mass g
V = volumeliquids/gases - ml
solids - cm3
Formula: d = m / V m
d V
Floating VS Sinking
Less dense objects float. More dense objects sink.
Water’s density is 1g/mL.Objects density < 1 will float in waterObjects density > 1 will sink. in water
Questions: Which state of matter has the highest density? What
units would you use?
Which state of matter has the lowest density? What units would you use?
Which has a greater density, 5 mL of water or 10 mL of water?
ViscosityDEF: Resistance to flow High viscosity
slow moving
Examples:
cold syrup
molasses
cold magma
Low viscosity fast moving
Examples:
water
dish soap
hot magma
Practice What does viscosity of a liquid describe?
Which has a higher viscosity, molasses or water?
Which has a higher viscosity, hot maple syrup or cold maple syrup?
Would a liquid with high viscosity flow faster or slower?
