In conclusion the purpose of this experiment was to see which metal had the highest
density. Our hypothesis was that lead would have the highest density and we were correct. Our
data shows that Lead had the most and Aluminum had the least. If i could improve this lab or
redo a trial I would expand the variety of metals. Therefore the highest density was Lead

4. Explain why the Titanic sank after hitting the iceberg. Use data to
explain your answer.
Before hitting the iceberg the Titanic’s volume was filled up with
air. Then, after hitting the iceberg the boat’s volume began to fill with
water making its mass heavier. Therefore, making the boat heavier
which made it sink.

of Heat Energy was Aluminum with 6,175 cal/g C. The lowest metal was Gold with 975
cal/g C. Ultimately, Aluminum had the highest Heat Energy.
Questions: Heat = Mass * Heat of Fusion
Heat = Mass * Change in Temperature * SH
Heat = Mass * Heat of Vaporization
1. How are Heat and Temperature different for the following pictures of boiling water?
Explain: (Hint: Use the Heat equation)
30 * 79.8
30 * 180 * 1.0
30 * 9.71
2. Water has a Specific Heat of 1.0 cal/gC and Gold has a Specific Heat of 0.03 cal/gC.
Use the data to explain the difference between their numbers.
They are different because Gold is a solid and is more dense than water which is a
liquid. This also means since water is a liquid it’s particles are more spread out instead
of a compact solid.

Total = 163 - 99.99%
IV. Conclusion: Explain the difference between Mixtures and Compounds using data. Compare
the pie charts.
Ultimately, the difference between a mixture and a compound is quite easy. T his data
proves how much of a certain element there is in the mixture. For example, in Mixture A their is
125 grams of large rocks compared to 75 grams of small rocks. Also, in Mixture B there is 205
grams of large rocks compared to 58 grams of small rocks. But a compound such as sodium
Phosphate or N a3 P O4 for example about 42% of Sodium Phosphate is made up of Sodium while
the other 58% is made up of Phosphorus and Oxygen In conclusion, there is a large difference
between mixtures and compounds.
Bonus:
Explain how you separated the Salt from the Sand. Use as much new vocabulary as you can.
We separated the salt from the sand with the water by using a coffee filter to separate
the grains of sand from the rocks and any other types of metals, etc…. Then we poured water
on the sand into the coffee filter to make it a salt water. After, we put the salt water on a hot
plate and recorded temperatures on the thermometer until it boiled and became salt.

#3 Activity: Conservation of Mass Investigation
Question:
Are the masses of baking soda and vinegar conserved when I mix them together in an open
system?
Background:
Scientific observations reveal that matter cannot be created or destroyed. Since the late
1700’s, chemists have used this observation to help them understand what happens during a chemical
reaction. Originally, for example, scientists observed the products of burning substances and concluded
that everything burnable contained a material called “flame stuff,” which was lost in the fire and ashes.
One scientist found that the ashes sometimes had more than the original substance. Did the burning create
matter? He correctly hypothesized that the burning substance combined with a reactant in the air.
Experiments showed that the reactant was oxygen. In this experiment you will attempt to show that the
mass of the reactants in a chemical reaction equals the total mass of the products.
Problem Statement:
What is the relationship between the mass of the reactants and the mass of the products in the
following chemical equation?
Hypothesis:
Reaction: ___NaHCO3 → ___NaOOCCH3 + ___H20 + ___CO2
___CH3C OOH + (Sodium bicarbonate) (Sodium acetate) (water) (carbon dioxide)

5. Using techniques learned during previous lessons, place 5 grams of Sodium bicarbonate
in the balloon.
6. Secure balloon containing the Sodium bicarbonate over the flask opening and mix the
two substances.
7. After the products have formed, remove the balloon and tie it off safely.
8. Measure the mass of the glass flask. RECORD #3 Sodium Acetate and Water

balloon.

Write an Essay that explains which fossil is older:
Fossil A
40% of Betancourtium remaining
In the chart 40% of Betancourtium has about 3,000
Fossil B
35% of Cabrerianite remaining
In the chart 35% of Cabrerianite has about 2,500 years.
In order to determine the age of the fossils, different types of isotopes are used. For example, a
fossil with 40% of B etancourtium is remaining would be 3,300 years old. Alternatively, at 35%
of the Cabreriantie remaining in a fossil, the fossil would be 2,500 years old. By using isotopes,
you are able to determine the age of the fossil. These isotopes show that 40% of
Betancourtium is remaining and 35% of C abrerianie remaining, the fossil with 40%
Betancourtium would be older. This would be a difference of 800 years. I figured this out by
looking at the graph to determine at which point of the half-life C abrerianite would be at 35%.
Therefore, the graphs showed that 40% remaining of Betancourtium, the fossil would be
roughly 3,300 years old, and 35% of the C abrerianite remaining, the fossil would roughly be
2,500 years old. As you can see, by using different isotopes you are able to determine the age
of the fossil.
Chemical Conclusion

2. What is the difference between Speed and Velocity? Explain using an example
in your own words.
Speed - The rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate.
Speed is how often and quickly something can move in all directions
Velocity - The speed of something in a given direction.
Velocity is The speed something can move in one direction

Speed and Velocity Problems
1. What is the average speed of a cheetah that sprints 100 m in 4 s? How about if it sprints
50 m in 2 s?
v = D/T v = D/T
v = 100m/4s v = 50m/2s
v = 25m/s v = 25m/s
2. If a car moves with an average speed of 60 km/hr for an hour, it will travel a distance of
60 km. How far will it travel if it continues this average rate for 4 hrs?
D = VT D = VT
D = 60km/hr (4hr) D = 60km/hr (2hr)
D = 240km D = 120km
3. A runner makes one lap around a 200m track in a time of 25.0 s. What was the runner's
average speed?
Answer: 8.0 m/s
v = D/T v = D/T
v = 200m/25s v = 100m/12.5s
v = 8m/s v = 50m/6.25s
4. Light and radio waves travel through a vacuum in a straight line at a speed of very nearly
3.00 × 108 m/s. How far is light year (the distance light travels in a year)?
Answer: 9.50 × 1015 m.
5. A motorist travels 406 km during a 7.0 hr period. What was the average speed in km/hr
and m/s?
Answers: 58 km/hr, 16 m/s.
