2 Density and Specific Gravity Goals 1. To measure and calculate the density and specific gravity of various substances. 2. To use significant figures correctly in calculations. Background Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. If a substance has a lot of mass in small volume we would say it is dense. For instance, fishing weights usually weigh only a few ounces, but they are heavy for their size. Fishing weights are often made out of lead, one of the densest metals. Hay, on the other hand is not dense; its mass per volume is very small. Bales of hay, while not dense, are very heavy due to their size and have been know to kill people the roll on. So having a lot a mass does not make something dense, it must be a lot of mass packed into a small volume. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume. In chemistry, the most common units of density are g/ml (used for liquids) and g/cm 3 (used for solids). Recall that a milliliter and a cubic centimeter are the same volume. Density = mass volume Below are densities for some common substances. Since two substances rarely have the same density, density can be used to identify materials. Solids (25 o C) Density (g/cm 3 ) Liquids (25 o C) Density (g/ml) Gases (0 o C, 1 atm) Density (g/l) Hay bale Gasoline 0.74 Helium Ice (0 o C) 0.92 Honey 1.42 Nitrogen 1.25 Aluminum 2.70 Olive oil 0.92 Air 1.29 Steel 7.48 Water 1.00 Oxygen 1.43 Iron 7.86 Urine Carbon dioxide 1.96 Brass 8.74 Blood 1.03 Sulfur hexafluoride 6.17 Copper 8.96 Mercury 13.6 Lead 11.4 Gold 19.3 Buoyancy stems from differences in density. Helium balloons float in air, because helium is less dense than air. In fact, the earth s atmosphere contains almost no helium because the gravitational pull is not strong enough to prevent its loss to outer space. Or helium supply comes from gases trapped in ores deep in the earth, a resource we are using up at an alarming rate. Other examples of how buoyancy is determined by density include oil floating on water and stones sinking in a river. Water is an unusual substance in that its solid form is less dense than its liquid form. The less dense ice floating in water allows pond life to survive over the winter. Volume by displacement If an object does not have a regular, easily measured shape, its volume can be determined by displacement. First, choose a partially filled graduated cylinder large enough to accommodate the object with enough liquid to completely submerge it. Carefully measure the volume in the cylinder. Submerge the object in the cylinder and measure the volume again. The difference between the two volumes is equal to the volume of the object. Once you have determined the volume, divide by the mass to find the density of the irregular object.
3 Specific Gravity Specific gravity is a ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Because specific gravity is unitless, it will be the same no matter which system of measurement is used. Specific Gravity = density of substance density of water For mercury, the specific gravity is equal to 13.6 g/ml divided by 1.00 g/ml = When using the metric system, the specific gravity is essentially the density written without a unit. Note if using imperial units, the specific gravity of mercury would be 113 lb/gal divided by 8.3 lb/gal for water which still equals Specific gravity is measured using a hydrometer. To use this instrument, float it in the liquid to be measured and read where the liquid surface hits the scale. The lower the hydrometer floats, the less dense the liquid. Hydrometers can be used to determine the amount of solids in a urine sample a higher specific gravity indicates less water present and possibly dehydration. Hydrometers are also used to determine alcohol content in beer. Brewers take a specific gravity reading before and after fermentation. As sugars convert to alcohol, the specific gravity decreases. The percent alcohol can be determined by comparing the initial and final specific gravity. Laboratory Activity Materials: metal block Graduated cylinders aluminum foil hydrometers Ruler Deionized water isopropanol Procedure A. Density of an Unknown Metal 1. Obtain an unknown metal sample and record the mass measured with a balance. 2. Find the volume of the cylinder by displacement. Fill a 25 ml graduated cylinder about halfway with water. Carefully read and record the volume to the correct number of significant figures. Angle the graduated cylinder and gently slide in the metal. If liquid splashes out, start over. Record the new volume. Subtract the two water volumes to find the volume of the metal. 3. Calculate the density of the metal. Determine the identity by comparing your value to the densities of metals in the table in the background section. B. Thickness of Aluminum Foil 1. Obtain a piece of aluminum foil and measure its length and width in centimeters with a ruler. Be sure to record the correct number of significant figures. 2. Record the mass of the aluminum foil. Fold the foil if necessary so that it only touches the pan of the balance. 3. Use the density of aluminum given in the table to find volume of the foil sheet. Given that the volume of the foil sheet is length x width x height, find the thickness (height) of the foil.
4 C. Density and Specific Gravity of Liquids. 1. Record the mass of a dry 100 ml graduated cylinder to the correct number of significant figures. 2. Fill the graduated cylinder roughly 2/3 full with deionized water and record the mass. The amount of water is not important do not try to fill exactly to a line! 3. Read the volume of the graduated cylinder to the correct number of significant figures. Use volume and mass to calculate the density of water. 4. Repeat steps 1-3 with a dry graduated cylinder for isopropyl alcohol. 5. Two large graduated cylinders in the front of the room will contain water and isopropyl alcochol. Gently place the hydrometer in each liquid and record the specific gravity. Remove and dry the hydrometer for use by the next group. Waste Disposal deionized water sink Isopropyl alcohol return to the bottle.
