10-30-2013 Let's calculate density

Coming up soon!  Quiz on Density!  Oh my.  Start studying!

For the quiz, you will need to know:
1.  how to calculate volume of a rectangular prism.
2.  the difference between 1D, 2D and 3D objects.
3.  how to define volume, mass, and density.  (what do these words mean?)
4.  which tools do we use to measure volume and to measure mass.
5.  which units do we use for volume, mass, and density
6.  how to calculate density
7.  the difference between atoms and molecules

Afternoon core:  Find the mass using triple balance beams!

Yesterday, we defined density to be "how spread out" or how close together" the atoms/molecules are in an object.

We also can say density is when we compare the mass (amount of atoms) to the volume (size/space the object takes up).

Today we will calculate density.  Click here for the assignment.
