Why is my density result different from yours?
What am I doing wrong?
Who is correct?
Ask students to determine the density of 15 identical looking, black plastic specimens of various sizes. Results will vary (hopefully)! When mass vs. volume is plotted for our Density Mystery Set, two lines with different slopes result. Although they look the same, this set is comprised of two different plastics, one with a density of 1.1 and the other with a density of 1.4. At the conclusion of the lesson, the pieces can be dropped into salt-water... seven sink and eight float.
A great lesson in scientific truth and trusting your own calculations!
