Equipment
You will need the following items from your lab kits:
Scale that can measure 0.1g increments ( kit)
Graduated cylinder ( kit)
Tape measure ( kit)
In addition, you will need:
Penny
piece of notebook paper
Coffee table (any table will do)
Shoe
pencil or pen
room (any room will do)
paper clip
three small containers (small glass, Dixie cup, small Tupperware, etc.)
Exercise 1 – Length
Measure the lengths of the objects using your tape measure from your lab kit. Exercise 1
will give you an idea of how familiar you are with metric measurements of length.

Turn in the completed table (Canvas).
Exercise 2 – Mass (Weight)
Measure the weights of the objects using the scale to 0.1g.
You will also need your
graduated cylinder to measure out 10 mL of water. Exercise 2 gives you an idea of how familiar
you are with measurements of weight. Don’t forget to tare (zero) the scale before you add any
objects.
You should also tare the scale with the empty graduated cylinder before you add water
to it.

Exercise 3– Volume
Measure the volume of 3 full containers of your choice with water (make sure they are
less than ½ liter---use a liter of soda for reference) using your graduated cylinder from your
home lab kit.
Exercise 3 will give you an idea of how familiar you are with metric
measurements of volume.

The density of a metal is 8.67 g/cm3. How many pounds are in 298.86 in of the metal?
(You can use the conversion factor approach. Or, you can convert density in g/cm to Ib/in and then
multiply the result times number of pounds.
2.52 cm = 1 inch
454 g = 1 lb
Please see 'answers to extra problems' question 10 for hints on how to do this.)
You need to write your answer in the box with one number past the decimal.
Please don't worry about the sig figs in this case. In these formula problems, the Canvas software will give a
variety of questions and each student gets their data with different sig figs. So I just have to choose and
sometimes it might seem that one past the decimal is not the correct sig figs. Nonetheless, you have to
follow that direction.

Mystery
It came out incorrect, stating: You do not have the highest density object at the top. Remember that density is the mass per unit volume. To get the volume, you need to subtract the initial volume of the water in the graduated cylinder from the final volume after the object is fully submerged.Note: The inital volume of water is 200.0mL

After completing the significant figures lab as outlined in the lab manual, you compare your results with one of your peers who who performed the lab on a different day. You determine the density to be a different value. Assuming you both performed the lab according to the lab manual and made no errors, what could cause this discrepancy?
If you measured slightly different volumes the density could be different.
2. This is not possible. If you both performed the experiment with no errors you should end up with exactly the same result.
3.If the temperature of water differed you could measure a different density
4.If you measured the density in metric units and your friend measured in imperial the density would be different.

• Measure the liquid in the beaker. Look at what the lines stand for (these are very limited in their ability to
measure). Account for all digits on the instrument and then add 1 estimated digit.
• If there is not a line for a place value (1, 2, 3...), then that is the furthest you can estimate!
