Question

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then . . . because . . .” and be sure to answer the lesson question "How can the density of an object be determined?”

Answer 1

Answer:

Sample Response: If the mass and volume of an object can be measured, then its density can be determined because density equals mass over volume.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The hypothesis can be written as follows:

Explanation:

• ' If the mass of an object is greater than another object, its density will also be greater than the other object.'
• A hypothesis can be described as a tentative statement that can be proved right or wrong depending on the results of an experiment.
• In the above scenario, the density of two objects can be compared by their mass and volume.
• The result generated will determine whether the hypothesis was correct or not.
