 DENSITY OF MERCURY

I´m going to show you how to calculate the density of the mercurywith the mass and he volume.

MATERIALS:

1. A scale
2. Two simple tube
3. A graduated test tube
4. Mercury

PROCEDURE

1. Measure the volume of the mercury with  a graduated test tuve and put it in a simple tuve.
2. Put the simple tuve on the scale and press `tare´. Now weigh the sample tube filled with mercury.
3. Analyse of the result:         mass= 70,3g  volume=5,2cm3
4. calculate the density: We divided the mass by the volume: 13,5g/cm3

 THE DENSITY IS 13,5G/CM3
