1. Explain how fluid B is different from fluid A
if all three fluids were placed together in a jar, which one would float on top explain?
Answer:
Fluid B is different from fluid A in its density.
Explanation:
As you can see in the mass-Volume graph. The ratio of mass to volume of fluid A is more than that of fluid B.
Density = mass/volume
If all three fluids were placed together in a jar, the one with lowest density will float on top. It means that fluid C will float on top as it has the lowest mass/volume ratio.
2. if each fluid was put into a different cup of the same size, which one would have the most mass explain?
Answer:
Fluid A will have the most mass.
Explanation:
All three fluids have different density. When placed in different cups of same size, we will have equal volume of each of the fluid.
Now that Volume is constant.
Density = mass/Volume
⇒Mass ∝ Density
The most denser fluid will have the most mass.
The answer is fluid A.
3. if you measured 20 g of each liquid, which one would take up the least amount of space explain.
Answer:
Fluid A would take up the least amount of space.
Explanation:
All three fluids have different mass to volume ratio. In this case, 20 g of each fluid is taken. It means that mass becomes constant.
So Density = Mass/Volume
⇒ Density ∝ 1/volume
Volume is inversely proportional to the density of the fluid.
Hence, Fluid with highest density will have the minimum volume.
The answer is fluid A.
