6. Calculating Density and Specific Gravity We can figure out the density of blocks using division if we know their volume and mass. m p= SG = Pmaterial The equations are V and Pwater Let's try this using the "mystery tab". Use the "show table" button to view a list of densities of materials. Use your observations and measurements to identify each block A, B, C. D. E as one of the materials on the list. You do not have to fill in every cell in the table, for materials that do not submerge completely you will not be able to determine the volume measurement using the tank volume change. Think about other observations you can make to figure out how the densities and specific gravities compare.
