1.a) What parts of the density experiment could have caused experimental error?
Not putting the battery into the water
1.b) How might you do the experiment differently to reduce that error?
You have to add water into the beaker and then measure the mass of grad cylinder and
material so you can find the volume too
2. Compare your density results and layering test to the predictions you made. If you were
wrong on any prediction, offer an explanation why.
We did not make any predictions.

1. a) Write a short paragraph that describes how you can determine the density of a fluid or
solid. Include an evaluation of two different density-determining techniques.
Density of a fluid can be determined by putting it inside a beaker filled with water and
measuring it with a triple beam balance and for the solid you can just put the solid on the
triple beam balance and measure it.
