  4. How can you explain the tilt of the scale?

  5. What are the physical characteristics of these objects?

  6. Place the objects on the scale to indicate that the green object is more dense than the red one. What could the two objects be made of? • Red: • Green:

  7. What are the physical characteristics of these two liquids?

  8. What more can you tell about the physical properties?

  9. If the blue liquid is water, what could the green liquid be?*

  10. Did you know... Objects that are more dense than water will sink.Objects that are less dense than water will float.

  11. This item is less dense than water. What makes it less dense? *

  12. Is this item more or less dense than water? How do you know? *

  13. Which air is more dense in a 2-story house…the air upstairs or the air downstairs? Explain. *
