Materials
Button, corn syrup(20ml), maple syrup(20ml), marble, milk (20ml), paper clip, penny, plastic dropper, plastic graduated cylinder(100ml), uncooked macaroni noodle, and water (20ml).
Pour the liquids in the graduated cylinder milk first, corn syrup, maple syrup, and last pour in the water.
1. List the substances in order of increasing density.
2. Each of the four liquids had the same volume. Why didn’t they each have the same density?
I need help I would do this myself, but I don’t have maple or corn syrup!
My answer for number two is that they all poured in the cylinder at different amount of times. I can’t answer number one! Please check my answer and help me on number 1!
Ms Sue please check my answer and if I had to answer number one I would say water, milk, maple syrup, and corn syrup. And I think number two is that the milk water corn syrup and maple syrup got poured in the cylinder at a different amount of time.
I think number two is right but it m not for sure
I think number 2 would be that the milk, water, corn syrup and maple syrup are not the same density because when it was poured in the graduated cylinder they all took different times to get in the cylinder. But idk so ya
helps me i dont have like half of those things and idk the answers
To answer your questions, let's first understand what density is. Density is the mass of a substance divided by its volume. In simpler terms, it measures how tightly packed the particles are in a material. The higher the density, the more particles are packed in a given volume.
Now, let's analyze the given substances and their densities in order to answer your questions.
1. To list the substances in order of increasing density, we need to compare the density of each substance. Unfortunately, since you don't have maple syrup or corn syrup, we'll need to assume their densities for the purpose of this explanation. Typically, maple syrup has a higher density than corn syrup, which in turn has a higher density than water. Therefore, assuming these densities, the substances can be listed in order of increasing density as follows:
- Water
- Corn syrup
- Maple syrup
- Milk
2. Regarding the four liquids having the same volume but different densities, you are correct that the liquids may have poured into the graduated cylinder at different rates. However, the pouring rate itself does not change the inherent density of a liquid. Density is a property of a material that remains constant regardless of volume or the speed at which it is poured.
In the case of the liquids in your experiment, with all volumes being equal, the differences in their densities can be attributed to their varied compositions and the amounts of particles (solute or dissolved components) they contain. Each liquid has specific properties that give it a unique density.
If you want to determine the actual densities of the liquids you mentioned, you can find this information online or consult a reference book. Density values for common substances are widely available, and there are databases that provide comprehensive density tables.
Remember, research and reliable sources are important when looking for accurate values.
