Question

b) With the aid of diagrams, briefly describe an experiment to determine the density of an irregular shaped object (eg. stone).​

Answer 1

Answer:

check the explanation

Explanation:

To find density you need mass and volume

to find mass use a digital balance and record it. Ex - 50g
to find the volume of the object
use a measuring cylinder and lets say you fill it up to 50cm³
then add the irregular object to the cylinder and record the new volume Ex - 54cm³
to find the volume of the object subract the final volume from the intial volume

54cm³-50cm³=4cm³

now that you have mass and volume use the equation D=M/V

Density =    Mass   =   50g    = 12.5g/cm³
                 Volume       4cm³
