Water density

Sample 1
Mass of liquid 1 = Mass of cylinder + liquid – Mass of empty cylinder
= 0.224kg – 0.119kg
= 0.105kg
Volume of liquid 1 = 0.0001m3

Liquid 1 density = Mass of liquid

Volume of liquid

= 0.105kg
0.0001m3
= 1050kg/m3

Sample 2
Mass of liquid 2 = Mass of cylinder + liquid – Mass of empty cylinder
= 0.196kg – 0.080kg
= 0.116kg
Volume of liquid 2 = 0.00012m3

Mass of liquid
Liquid 2 density =
Volume of liquid

0.116kg
=
0.00012m3
= 967kg/m3

Average density = 1050kg/m3 + 967kg/m3

2
=1008.5 kg/m3

Water never has an absolute density because its density varies with temperature. Water has its maximum density of 1g/cm 3 at 4 degrees
Celsius. When the temperature changes from either greater or less than 4 degrees, the density will become less then 1 g/cm3. Water has the
maximum density of 1 g/cm3 only when it is pure water. Other factors affect water's density such as whether it is tap or fresh water or salt
water. These variations of water changes its density because what's in the water has its own density
