cylinder
Unknown metal 1 Triple beam
balance
5 1 pesos coin

III. Procedure
A. Density of Unknown Metal

Weigh unknown metal sample

Add 10 mL to graduated cylinder

Record volume.
Place unknown metal sample in cylinder.

Record volume.
Calculate density. Identify.

B. Density of Liquid

Weigh empty graduated cylinder

Fill with unknown liquid sample up to maximum graduation

Weigh.
Get difference of dry g. cylinder and g. cylinder+liquid weights.

Calculate density.
 C. Density of a Coin.

Weigh 5 1peso coins separately.

Add the weights. Get average.

Stack the coins.

Measure diameter and height

Calculate volume using V=r2h
