Gizmo Warm-up Whether an object floats or sinks in a fluid depends on the density—or mass per unit of volume—of the object as well as the density of the fluid. The Density via Comparison Gizmo allows you to compare objects by placing them in fluids of differing densities.
Place object A into Beaker 2, which contains a liquid with a density of 1 g/mL, equal to the density of water.

What happens?

Is object A more or less dense than water? Explain how you know.

Now drop object B into Beaker 2. Describe what happens and explain what that tells you about the density of object B.

Activity:

Estimating density
Get the Gizmo ready:
Double-click on the shelf to return all objects to the shelf.

Question: How do you estimate the density of an object without measuring its mass or volume?

Observe: Drag object A into Beaker 1. If it sinks, move it into beakers 2, 3, and so on until it floats.

What is the highest-density fluid in which object A sinks?

What is the lowest-density fluid in which object A floats?
Based on the previous two answers, what can you say about the density of object A? (Note: The density of a solid is measured in g/cm3, which are equivalent to g/mL.)

Gather data: Drag each object into all of the beakers. Write “floats” or “sinks” in each space in the table below. In the last column, estimate the density of each object.

Object
Beaker 1 (0.5 g/mL)
Beaker 2 (1 g/mL)
Beaker 3 (1.5 g/mL)
Beaker 4 (2.5 g/mL)

Analyze: Drag objects B and E into Beaker 2. Which object is denser?

Explain how you know:
Challenge yourself: Describe how you know which object is denser in each situation.

In a laboratory experiment, a fermenting aqueous solution of glucose and yeast produces carbon dioxide gas and ethanol. the solution was heated by burning natural gas in a bunsen burner to distill the ethanol that formed in the flask. during the distillation, the ethanol evaporated and then condensed in the receiving flask. the flame of the burner was kept too close to the bottom of the flask and some of the glucose decomposed into a black carbon deposit on the inside of the flask. during this experiment the following changes occurred. which of these changes involved a physical change and not a chemical change? check all that apply. 1-condensation of ethanol 2-evaporation of ethanol 3- formation of carbon dioxide gas from glucose burning of natural gas 4-formation of ethanol from glucose by yeast 5-formation of a carbon deposit inside the flask

Nconcentration refers to the molar concentration of an ion in solution. it may be identical to, or greater or less than, the molar concentration of the compound containing the ion that was used to make the solution. for soluble salts, the molarity of a particular ion is equal to the molarity of that compound times the subscript for that ion. for example, 1 m of alcl3 is 1 m in al3+ and 3 m in cl−. 1 m of (nh4)2so4 is 2 m in nh4+ and 1 m in so42−. part a what is the concentration of k+ in 0.15 m of k2s? view available hint(s) nothing m m part b if cacl2 is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ca2+ ion? view available hint(s) if is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ion? it has the same concentration as the cl− ion. its concentration is half that of the cl− ion. its concentration is twice that of the cl− ion. its concentration is one-third that of the cl− ion. part c a scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, na3po4, for a laboratory experiment. how many grams of na3po4 will be needed to produce 550 ml of a solution that has a concentration of na+ ions of 0.700 m ? express your answer numerically in grams. view available hint(s) mass of na3po4 n a 3 p o 4 = nothing g provide feedback
