Density Lab


With a scale to measure mass, a graduated cylinder to measure volume, and a large beaker of liquid to observe floatation, the relationship between mass, volume, density, and floatation can be investigated. The density of the liquid in the beaker can be adjusted, and many different objects can be studied during the investigation.
