12/12 B DayLEQ: How can we use density to tell if an element is pure?
1. What is one element that has similar properties to hydrogen? 2. Would you expect sodium (Na) to be malleable? 3. Why or why not? (Explain your answer!)4. Would you expect xenon (Xe) to be ductile?5. Why or why not? (Explain your answer!)
Today’s LEQ: How can we use density to tell if an element is pure?
By the end of today, you should be able to…1. SOLVE to find the density of an object using
the density equation.
2. Use data on density to determine if an element is pure

BrainPop: Density
D =
MASS = grams (g)
VOLUME = milliliters (mL) OR centimeters cubed (cm )
DENSITY = grams per milliliter (g/mL) OR grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm )

1. Write the formula for density2. Fill in the density triangle3. Use the scale to measure and record
the MASS of each object4. Use your calculator to calculate the
density or the volume of each object (don’t forget the units!)
