Set of 15 Aluminum Density Specimens w/base

Larger View

Each set contains 15 specimens of varying lengths. Polypropylene is the only one with a density less than water; it floats.

I strongly believe in giving students different sized specimens of the same material and asking them to determine both its mass and volume. Then, by sharing the class data, a Mass vs. Volume graph can be plotted. The slope of the straight line is the density of the material. When a different material is used, the density usually changes. The specimen holder allows the teacher to see immediately when all of the specimens have been returned!

Density & Slope Set

Students can determine the density of two different materials: aluminum and a gray colored plastic, then plot the results.

Density Cubes - Six Metals

Extra large (25 mm) cubes of 6 different metals: aluminum, brass, copper, iron, lead, and zinc.

Density Identification Set

Students try to identify each of 15 different samples by determining their density.
