Density

In Science class we are learning about density.

To experiment with density we found the

mass and volume of a bunch of different objects then divided that to find

out what the actual density of the object is.

The formula to find the density is mass divided

by volume. After figuring this all out we learned that

you can find out how an object sinks or floats

by looking at the density. The lower the number is

that the density is, the more its likely it is to float instead of

sink. The higher the number though, the more likely

it sinks when placed in water or other liquids.

If the objects are the same size and one floats and one

sinks that means that one has more molecules in

it.. are more dense. More compacted than the other

object thats floating.
