7.2 Fluids and Density

• A fluid is any form of matter that can flow. Liquids and gases are fluids since they do not have a fixed

shape. Solids are not fluids. Solids have a ‘fixed’ shape and cannot

flow.

See page 260Lava, water, and syrup are examples of fluids.2

Solid, Liquid, and Gas Density

• Density is the amount of mass for each unit of volume. Density describes how closely

packed together the particlesare in a material.

See page 261

Describe the spacing of the particles in the

solid block, liquid water, and

gaseous air.

Most substances are denser in their solid form than in their liquid form, but water is an exception.

Changing Levels of Air Density

• Air particles are relatively dense close to Earth’s surface.

• If we increase our altitude, we encounter areas of lower air density.

• The higher we go, the farther apart the air particles are spread out, making it harder for us to get enough oxygen particles into our lungs with every breath.

Layers of Fluids

• Fluids that do not mix, layer themselves according to their density.

• Less dense fluids “float” on top of more dense fluids.

See pages 262 - 263

Can you list the objects, in this beaker, from most dense to least dense?

oil

ball

water

Measuring Density

See page 264

• Both mass and volume are required when calculating density.

• Mass: Mass can be measured using a scale or

balance.

• Volume: For objects that are block shaped, volume can

be calculated by measuring the block and then using the equation:

volume = length x width x height.

For objects with irregular shape displacement is the method used to find the volume.

Calculating Density

See page 265

Density can be calculated using the following formula:

Answer the following:1. What is the density of a 4 cm3 rock

that has a mass of 24 g?

2. A 5 ml sample of motor oil has a mass of 4.5 g. What is the density of the motor oil?

Density (D) = mass (m)

volume (V)

6 g/cm3

0.9 g/mL
