Whats the difference between weight and density?
Weight is an EXTENSIVE physical property
Measures the force of gravity!
Density is a measure of how much matter is in a certain volume
They are PROPORTIONAL because as mass increases weight
increases!
Objective 3: Define density
and contrast it with weight
m
V D
DENSITY Calculations!
1. A piece of tin (Sn) has a mass of 16.52 g and a
volume of 2.26 mL. What is the density of the tin?
2. A man has a bottle completely filled with 163 g of a
slimy green liquid that has a density of 3.26 g/cm
3
.
What is the volume of the bottle?
3. A piece of metal has a density of 11.3 g/mL and a
volume of 6.7 cm
3
. What is the mass of the metal?
Objective 4: Calculate the density,
mass, or volume of a substance
using the density equation
Identifying Properties!
If the property that is observed
Does NOT change the substance into a NEW substance
PHYSICIAL PROPERTY
Examples: the density of the metal is 5.6 or the melting point of water is 0C
DOES change the substance into a NEW substance
CHEMICAL PROPERTY
Examples: oxygen is highly flammable or 67.4 mg of crystal meth is toxic to the
liver
NOTE: melting, boiling, evaporating, or sublimation are NOT changing
the substance into something NEW
Objective 5: Identify whether a
property of a substance is physical
or chemical
