Most definitely gravity. Gravity is what makes things go up and or down
In order to determine the density of an item, we will need to determine its mass and volume. The standard unit for measuring mass in a lab is the gram. Think about liquids- what units do you typically report the volume of a liquid in? What about for a sugar cube, what volume is the most appropriate?
A regular object like a sugar cube can be measured with a ruler so we might report the volume in centimeters cubed (cm3). An irregular object like the plate pictured below can be measured by using a technique called volume by displacement. A liquid (typically water) is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume of a liquid is measured. Then the irregular object is placed in the liquid and the volume is measured again. The change in volume is the irregular object’s volume. This measurement is often made using a graduated cylinder and recording a volume in Liters or milliliters (mL).

Elements and compounds. This is because in solutions and mixtures the substances are not bonded to each other or pure, you can separate and purify substances in solutions and mixtures (via techniques such as distillation, filtering) but you cannot separate compounds as they are bonded together.
Hello!
1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473 mL. What is the new pressure of gas?
- <u><em>We have the following data:</em></u>
Vo (initial volume) = 1.00 L
V (final volume) = 473 mL → 0.473 L
Po (initial pressure) = 1 atm (pressure exerted by the atmosphere - in STP)
P (final pressure) = ? (in atm)
- <u><em>We have an isothermal transformation, that is, its temperature remains constant, if the volume of the gas in the container decreases, so its pressure increases. Applying the data to the equation Boyle-Mariotte, we have:</em></u>
<u><em>Answer: </em></u>
<u><em>The new pressure of the gas is 2.11 atm </em></u>
