Instructional goals
1. Define mass as the measure of atomic “stuff”; contrast with volume - the amount of space an object
occupies.
2. Use a multiple beam or double-pan balance to determine the mass of various objects.
3. Record the value of an object’s mass in a manner consistent with the limit of precision of the balance.
4. Represent class data using a histogram; use the histogram to interpret trends in the data.
5. Develop, from experimental evidence, the law of conservation of system mass.
6. Relate the volume of a container (in cm3) to the volume of liquid it contains (in mL).
7. Recognize that instruments have a limit to their precision; relate the data recorded to the quality of the
measurement.
8. Given a graph of mass vs. volume of a various substances, relate the slope to the density of the
substances.
9. Recognize that density is a characteristic property of matter (i.e., it can be used to help identify an
unknown substance).
10. Use density as a conversion factor between mass and volume; apply this to quantitative problems.
11. Use differences in density of solids, liquids and gases as evidence for differences in the structure of
matter in these phases.
