Matter, Mass, Density
by Nina Hipps
This lesson starts by discussing/learning what is matter, the states of matter, and the properties of matter. It continues with what is mass and how to measure it. Two labs follow: density of solids and density of liquids. Students will need triple beam balances, density blocks, cm ruler, grad. cylinders, liquid samples, calculators. They will find the mass, volume, and density of solid and liquid samples in this hands-on lesson.
