Density of Metals Problem: How does the mass and volume help determine the density of known metal samples? Hypothesis: When comparing the density of Zn(zinc) and Cu(copper)‚ you will find that Copper is more dense than Zinc. You can test this out by using the density formula D=m/v. Materials: * 2 metals (options: zn‚ al‚ or cu) * 3 samples of each metal (small‚ medium‚ and large) * Scale/Balance * Calculator * Water * Graduated Cylinder Safety: * Be prepared for your
