List 3 important rules for making particle diagrams 

Particles must be the same size

Particles must be evenly distributed

Particles must differentiate between different substances

A box has a volume of 8.7in^3 and a area of 6.5in^2. Estimate the height in cm. 

3.4cm

The density of platinum is 21.4 g/mL. Predict the mass of a 41890 mL block. WORK MUST BE SHOWN ON WHITEBOARD!

896,446 g

Predict the volume in mL of a block of lead that has a mass of 20.1 g. Density of lead = 11.3 g/cm3

1.78 mL

200

A has a density of 10 g/cm3, B has a density of 20 g/cm3. Which would have a steeper slope on a graph?

B because for an equal volume B has a greater mass, therefore a greater slope

300

Draw a particle diagram for a substance that has the density of 3g/1cm^3

must have 3 particles in the box

300

A box has a volume of 320cm^3 and a height of 10cm. Find the area. Show all your work!

19.5in^3= A x 3.9in

19.5in^3/3.9in = A 

5in^2= A

Predict the volume in m3 of a block of osmium that has a mass of 5000 g. Density of osmium = 22.6 g/cm3

For every 100 cm there is 1 m

0.00022 m3

300

You measured that 5 g of copper had a volume of 0.55 mL, then you measured that 20 g of copper had a volume of 2.40 mL. What is the density of copper?

Calculate slope: change in mass over change in volume= 8.1 g/mL

400

Metal A has a slope of 2g/1cm^3 and metal B has a slope of 5g/1cm^3. Draw the particle diagrams and explain which is denser. 

B is denser than A because for an equal volume B has 5 particles and A has 2 particles. 

400

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3. Predict the mass in kg of a block of gold that has an area of 20 cm2 and a height of 0.9 cm. (for every 1000 g there is 1 kg)

Predict the mass in kg of a block of granite that measures 5 cm on all sides. Density of granite = 2.6 g/mL. 

for every 1000 g there is 1 kg

0.048 kg

500

Substance A has a density ratio of 18g/1cm^3 and Substance B has the density of 48g/ 3cm^3. Draw particle diagrams for both substances and explain the relationship between the densities. 

Substance A has 18 particles in the box. Substance B has 16 particle in the box. Substance A is more dense because for an equal volume A has 18 particles and B has 16. 

500

Predict mass in pounds of a block of aluminum (density = 2.7 g/cm3) that measures 0.5 cm by 1 cm by 5 cm.

For every 1000 g there is 1 kg

For every 1 kg there is 2.26 pounds
