- Density of an Irregular Shape
- Equipment
- Eureka Beaker
- Electric balance
- Measuring cylinder
- Calculator
- Irregular Shape
- Density= mass/volume
- Method
- 1) Gather all equipment needed and set it up as shown in diagram
- 2) Calculate the mass of the irregular object using the balance.
- 3) Fill the eureka beaker with water until it's pouring out of the spout, place it on a higher surface than the measuring cylinder(which is placed underneath the spout.
- 4) Place the irregular object in the eureka beaker, collecting the overflow from the spout in the measuring cylinder
- 5) The volume of water in the measuring cylinder is the volume of the irregular shape
- 6) Use the mass and the volume to calculate the density, using the equation given.
