Description
In science, we define density as the ratio of an object's mass to the amount of space the object takes up. These labs have been designed to help your students understand what factors contribute to an object's density in a fun and interactive way. This file contains FIVE LABS that deal with density. Each lab has a handout that includes numerous critical thinking questions. An instructor's manual & key is provided for each handout and lab.
