If someone took a giant spoon and mixed together the layers of the Earth, do you think they would stay mixed or would they separate? Why?
They would separate because they have different densities.

Jamal has a metal cube that weighs 3.5 kilograms and takes up 1,400 cubic centimeters of space. He wants to figure out what type of metal it might be by calculating its density.
What is the mass he needs to use in his equation?
3.5 kilograms

The range of density for Basalt is 2.7 - 3.3 g/cm3
The range of density for Granite is 2.6 - 2.7 g/cm3
Which crust material will sink below the other?
Basalt because it is generally more dense.
