Background: This lab is all about finding the density of a candy bar, and determining whether or not the candy bar will float or end up sinking in a glass of water. In order to investigate the principles of mass, you have to find the volume and density for four different types of candy bars. My question is, which candy bar will have the least amount of density?
Hypothesis: If a Twix has cookie inside, then it will have the least amount of density.
Materials:
4 candy bars( Snickers, Twix, 3 Musketeers, Milky way)
Balance
Ruler
Procedures: First, you try to find the volume measure by using L x W x H. You then measure the width using a ruler. Finally, find the mass of the candy bar by weighing it on the scale and find its density by using D=M/V.

Results:

Analysis: Out of all the all the candy bars, Snickers were more denser because it has caramel inside it making the mass a little bigger, so when comparing it to the other bars the Snickers weighs 17.41 and 3 Musketeers weighs 6.32. Density is related to whether it sinks or floats because if it is light the candy will float but, if it has a high amount of density then it will sink. The way I would predict if it could float on water, would be trying to get an estimated weight by placing it on the of my hand. My prediction was wrong because I just looked at the size of the candy bar, guessing that just because it was small It would float. Sincerely it didn’t work for all

    - Each liquid that was used in Part I has its own independent density. Density being the relationship between the mass and volume of a substance. In this portion of the lab we explored relative density, each liquid compared to the others. The corn syrup was the most dense, in comparison to the other liquids. Whereas the vegetable oil was the least dense compared to the other liquids. The liquids in between followed this same principle in their respective orders.…

Ice cubes float on water and sink in alcohol because anything with less density than the liquid it’s in will always float.…

    The purpose of this experiment is to compare the different densities of different liquids. Density is a comparison between an object's mass and volume. Density = Mass divided by Volume. If the weight (or mass) of something increases but the volume stays the same, the density has to go up. If the mass decreases but the volume stays the same, the density has to go down. This experiment will show how the weight of certain liquids react to each other.…

    Gummy Bear Experiment

    After we took that gummy bear out of the water the size of it had changed dramatically the thickness was 25mm the width was 18mm the height was 41mm and the final volume was 18450 mm 3 and that final mass was 13.28grams. Overall we could tell that there was a lot of osmosis and diffusion happening to the gummy bear. If we were to make this experiment better I would suggest leaving the gummy bear in water till it was fully diffused. Another way we could make this experiment better would be to use more expensive gummy bears so that they would not fall apart so easily. Overall I liked the experiment and thought that we got good data it was also fun seeing how much diffusion accord with our own eyes not just the smell of it…
