Limestone and quartz are common minerals found in Florida. Sarah has a piece of each, but does not know which is which. To find
out, she plans an investigation to determine the density of each sample, because limestone has a lower density than quartz. Density is equal to the mass divided by volume. She places a piece of each mineral into a graduated cylinder that contains water. The table shows the measurements Sarah recorded. What can Sarah most likely conclude is true? Mass of Mineral 1 9.50g Mass of Mineral 2 9g Volume of water in graduated cylinder 25ml Volume of water and mineral 1 in graduated cylinder 30ml Volume of water and mineral 2 in graduated cylinder 28.4 ml * a.) Mineral 2 is limestone because it has less mass
b.) MIneral 1 is limestone because it has more mass
c.) MIneral 1 is limestone because it has a lower density
d.) Mineral 2 is limestone because it has a lower density
Measure the amount of certain radioactive elements in the rock when rocks are formed, small amounts of radioactive elements usually get included as the rock ages, more and more of the uranium changes into lead.
