100
Density is measured as:
What is grams per cubic centimeter?
100
Buoyancy is:
What is the tendency of an object to float in a fluid?
100
Specific Gravity is:
What is the density of a substance compared to the density of water?
100
Displacement is:
the amount of water the object replaces
100
Archimedes discovered that objects weigh less when:
they are placed in water
200
Density is a basic property of:
What is matter?
200
Buoyancy allows:
A ship to float in water
200
Specific Gravity is measured with a ?
What is a hydrometer?
200
If a rock displaces 50ml, the volume of the rock is:
50cm^3 (as one ml is equal to one cm^3)
200
One milliliter is equal to:
a cubic centimeter
300
Density can be used to:
Identify different substances is the measure of mass per volume is measured in grams per cubic centimeter
300
The buoyant force of an object is equal to the water that it displaces? TRUE or FALSE
TRUE
300
Specific Gravity can be used to check?
the chemical purity of a substance
300
Displacement is the force exerted upward by a gas or liquid. TRUE or FALSE
FALSE (that is buoyancy)
300
What will happen if water and corn syrup are mixed?
layer of water will float on top of the corn syrup (as specific gravity and density of corn syrup is greater than that of water (1.0))
400
To find the density of something you must measure:
What mass and volume?
400
Archimedes' principle states that the amount of weight lost by an object in water is equal to:
the weight of the water that the object displaces
400
To determine whether a rock is real gold or "fools" gold, one can use?
Specific Gravity
400
To find the volume of a irregular shaped solid - you can measure?
It's displacement
400
Will a hydrometer float higher in glycerin or gasoline?
Glycerin as its specific gravity is higher
500
What is the term for the density of a substance compared to the density of water?
What is Specific Gravity?
500
Buoyancy is:
the tendency of an object to float in a fluid
500
What do you know about the specific gravity of a liquid that floats on water?
Its specific gravity is less than one (the specific gravity/density of water)
500
Archimedes observed that whenever an object is placed in water:
the water level rises
500
What is the relationship between density of a substance and its specific gravity?
they are equal
