density inquiry lab
conclusion: how are mass, volume, and density related?
density mass mass matter property space takes up unknown volume volume volume
claim: ________ is a ratio of ______ and ______. it can be used to identify ________ substances.
evidence:

	mass of liquid (g)	volume (ml)	density (g/ml³)	substance
liquid b	type answer	10 ml	type answer	type answer
liquid c	type answer	10 ml	type answer	type answer

reasoning: density is a ________ of matter. it is calculated using a known ______ and ______. mass is the amount of ______ in something. ______ is the amount of ______ that a substance ________.

Explanation:

Claim

Density is defined as the ratio of mass to volume. And density is an intensive property that can identify unknown substances (since different substances have unique density values). So we fill in the blanks with the appropriate terms from the word bank.

Density is a property of matter. The formula for density is $
ho=\frac{m}{V}$, so it's calculated using known mass and volume. Mass is the amount of matter in something. Volume is the amount of space that a substance takes up (from the word bank terms like "space" and "takes up" and the definition of volume).

Answer:

Density is a ratio of mass and volume. It can be used to identify unknown substances.
