Measuring Matter

Unit 3 Lesson 1 Measuring Matter

Self Paced Interactive Lesson

Learning Goal

You will be able to define density and understand how to calculate density using mass and volume. The next slide has a overview of density...

Multiple Choice

In the video, what did the speaker say was the formula for finding density?

• D=M+V

• D=MxV

• D=M/V

• D=M-V

Finding Density requires we first know an object's mass. But what is "mass"?

Multiple Choice

In the video, the speaker showed us how to find mass using the triple beam balance. What units did he measure mass with?

• Inches

• Ounces

• Pounds

• Grams

Multiple Choice

What is the mass on this triple beam?

• 142g
• 42g
• 102g
• 444g

Multiple Choice

What is the mass on this triple beam?

• 220g
• 222g
• 20g

Multiple Choice

Hey! Were you paying attention? Let me ask again.... mass is measured in...

• liters

• pounds

• grams

• inches

Multiple Choice

The Unit "gram" is about equivalent to a(n)

• atom

• paper clip

• cat

• elephant

Multiple Choice

What did the speaker say was the formula for volume?

• V = L+W+H

• V = L x W

• V = L x W x H

• V = L + W

Density is mass divide by volume!!!

Multiple Choice

Which box has a higher density?  

• Box A
• Box B
• cannot be determined
• they are the same

Multiple Choice

Which box has a greater density?  

• Box A
• Box B

Multiple Choice

What is the formula for finding density?

• mass plus volume

• mass minus volume

• mass times volume

• mass divided by volume

Multiple Choice

What is this tool to get mass?

• triple beam balance

• ruler

• thermometer

• graduate cylinder

Multiple Choice

What is the formula for density?

• density = mass x volume
• density = mass / volume
• density = mass + volume
• density = mass - volume

Multiple Choice

Which liquid is the least dense?

• oil
• water
• syrup 
• plastic bottle

Multiple Choice

Put the liquids in order from most dense to least dense?

• 4, 3, 2, 1
• 1, 2, 3, 4
• 3, 4, 2, 1, 
• 4, 3, 1, 2

Multiple Choice

What is the density of a substance that has a mass of 30g and a volume of 6 liters?

• 24 g/l
• 5 g/l
• 36 g/l
• 180 g/l

Multiple Choice

Which property of matter is determined by dividing its mass by its volume?

• elasticity
• buoyancy
• density
• viscosity

Congratulations!

• You finished the lesson!

• Enjoy the rest of your day!
