    EXPERIMENT Todetermine the density of a solid (denser than


    by using a spring balance and a measuring water)
    cylinder
    Basio Concepts (Theory and Practical Skills)
    THE CONCEPT
    BRIEF REVIEWOF
    Matter oCCupies space and has mass. Space occupied by the matter can be measured using the concept of
    volume while mass Sthe quantity of matter contained in the body. Mass is measured in grams or kilograms whereas
    volume is measured in cm°(or millilitre) or m².Aspring balance measures the weight of the body in gram-force(gf) at
    aplace. If measured in gram-force or gram-wt, the measured value can simply be used to represent the mass of the
    body in grams.
    It is found that equal volumes of two different bodies may have different masses. For example, arubber ball and an
    have different masses. To make a Comparison between the
    iron lof the same volume
    ball the concept
    volume, masses
    of density is used. Densityis defined as the mass per unit volume of
    two objects
    of the body. of sameit
    Let us explain
    using sample ofgold. Density of gold is 19-3 g cm while that of water is 1gcm. It means that if we take equal
    a s of water and gold, then mass of gold is 19- 3times the mass of water.
    volumes
    aalhy we compare the density of a Substance with the density of water, which is 1g cm-3 at 4°C. It is the
    maximumvalue of density of water. The ratio of the density of asubstance to the densitv of water at 4°Cis termed as
    olative density or the specitic gravity or tne substance. It, being the ratio of two similar auantities has no units. So
    of gold is 19-3.
    we say that the relative density (R.D.)
    Write Up for Practical File
    AIM OF THE EXPERIMENT
    To dotermine the density of a solid (denser than water) by using a spring balance and a measuring
    cylinder.
    APPARATUS AND MATERIALS REQUIRED
    Aclamp stand, a graduated measuring cylinder of capacity 100 mL with a least count of 2 mL. a spring balance
    and asolid non-porous stone.
    THEORY
    When a body is completely immersed in water, the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the body.
    Mass of the body
    Also. the density of the body is glven oy P Volume of the body
    PROCEDURE
    A. To find the mass m of the body:
    1, Find the least count of the spring balance.
    2. Hang the spring balance with the help of a clamp stand and check whether the pointer scale reads exactly
    zero. Adjust the zero if necessary.
