On Monday we did multiple activities that looked at density. The first thing we did was look at how liquids of different densities settle when combined by adding different food colorings to different liquids and mixing them. We also whiteboarded the problems from worksheets on volume, density, and mass. Also we started a worksheet on applied density.
On Tuesday, after completing worksheet 4, and we did a lab on gas density. We discussed how to find the mass and volume of a gas, and discovered that gas is less dense than water. And because we knew the volume, we can find the mass and density.
On Wednesday, we discovered that the gas from the experiment on Tuesday is 600 times lighter than water. For the remainder of the class, we worked on the worksheet of applying density to study for the quiz on Tuesday.
Thursday we quizzed on applying density. Afterwards we found the thickness of regular and heavy duty aluminum foil.
