Lab 3.5
The Density of Solids
Experimental Errors:
1. Mix up the cubes.
2. Measure same side of cube/slab.
3. You use the end of ruler instead of first line.
4. Measure rock's volume before massing --->wet, mass and density increase.
5. Mix up cubes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALL HAVE DIFFERENT DENSITIES BEAUSE THE ROCK IS FORMED BY MANY SUBSTANCES BEING COMPRESSED TOGETHER. DIFFERENT SUBSTANCES=DIFFERENT DENSITIES.
