Water Displacement

displacement occurs when an object

is immersed in a fluid, pushing it out of
the way and taking its place.
The volume of the fluid displaced can
then be measured, as in the
illustration, and from this the volume of
the immersed object can be deduced

This animation shows how a rubber stopper

placed in a graduated cylinder will cause the water
level to rise. Since the volume of the stopper is
equal to the volume of water displaced and the
initial and final mass is known, the density of the
irregularly shaped stopper can be determined.
 Density
Density- is a property that can be
used to identify a substance.

Calculating Density:
Density = Mass
Volume
 Density
******If the density is greater than 1 the
object will sink
*****If the density is less than 1 the object
will float
   Wood has a density of 0.85 g/cm – it
will float
Steel has a density of 7.81 g/cm- it will
sink

change

Phase changes
During a phase change particles are
changing
o Speed
Distance between each particle
3 points where temperature changes –
A,C,E
2 points where temperature doesn’t
change- B, D

D E
C
B
A
 WHY ??
Particles are going through a
phase change
Chang speed and how far they
are apart

 Heterogeneous mixture
mixture that does EX: Chocolate
not appear to be Chip cookies,
the same Pizza
throughout.
 Homogeneous Mixture
A mixture that EX: Milk, toothpaste,
appears to be the and mayonnaise
same throughout.

It is “well mixed.”
