We determine the mass of the metal in grams by weighing it using the balance. Next we obtain the volume of the metal by measuring its displacement with a graduated cylinder and water in the following way: 1.measure amount of water in the graduated cylinder. 2. Place metal into the graduated cylinder 3. Measure the amount of water in the graduated cylinder 4. Subtract step 1 from step 3. The difference is the metal's volume. Once we have found out the mass and the volume then we calculate the density using the formula: Density = Mass/Volume. We then check our answer from the known densities of metals in the table of densities that has been provided and determine the identity and purity of the metal by how close our answer is to the most probable value in the table.

ANTONII [103]
The light-dark cycle caused by the rising and setting of the sun is responsible for what are called circadian rhythms. These are biological processes that show a cycle of around 24 hours, the time between consecutive rising of the sun. Experiments have shown that without the external cue of sunlight, the circadian rhythms of organisms tend to break down. These can be reset by being re-exposed to these cues. Jet lag is due in part to a re-setting of the circadian rhythm, as you travel to a different time zone, your body has to become used to a different timing of night and day. <span>  </span>
