The density of an object is often measured in grams per milliliter. The density of water is 1.00 g/mL. To measure the density of the substance it was placed on a balance to measure how many grams it is then divided that number by its volume. The volume is the amount the substance takes up in the given space. Different liquids have different densities even if the substances take up the same amount of volume space. For example, if one cup of water was poured into a glass, and the same amount of oil was to pour, what would happen? Would both substance mix? No, the oil will rise to the top because oil is less dense than water. A wooden boat could float in the ocean; but, try taking a rock and placing it on the surface of the water. Usually, rocks are denser than water which is why rocks to sink to the bottom of the surface. Two substances or object could carry similarities in mass but different densities. Accuracy vs. Precision is a major part of this lab experiment. It mainly focuses on the precision reasoning of better calculation measurements. Accuracy shows how well the results of a measurement agree with the accepted value. The unlikeness between the actual correct measurement and the experimental result is very much narrowed. Precision is the degree of exactness of a measurement. It depends on the materials and technique chosen to take the
