1. The document provides instructions for various classroom activities and assignments that students need to complete for chemistry class. It includes instructions for labs on identifying volume and defining matter, as well as quick writes and a timer designer activity. 2. There are three methods described for finding the volume of objects: using a liquid for regular shapes and irregular objects, and calculating volume with formulas for cubes and rectangles. Example problems are provided to illustrate each method. 3. An assignment is given to determine the type of volume measurement and method needed to find the volume of different objects like a sponge, candle, toy, and box. Points are awarded for showing work, answering with the correct unit, and completing the volume assignment by the

1. Today you will need:
1. Pencil, Calculator, Colored
Pencils & Highlighters
2. Log #2 – Update
3. Identifying Volume Lab
(Bookshelf – 2 sheets/3 sides
– Please Staple)
4. Definition of Matter Lab +
Cornell Notes – Due Now
5. Timer Designer – Log in

2. Quick Writes will not be grade for points
but for participation and honesty.
1. You are allowed to use your brain, any
notes, labs or worksheets we have
done in class.
2. You may not use your textbook or
interactive reader.
3. You will have 10 minutes to complete
as many questions as possible.
4. With a colored pencil, you will grade
your own.

3. There are THREE way to find
volume in the chemistry classroom.
You will need to know them in order
to help you eventually determine
the density of various objects.
REMEMBER:
Volume is the Amount of
Space something takes
up.

4. Method #1: With a Liquid
Illustrate & Color this on your paper.
Meniscus
•The unit of
measurement is
usually in mL or L
or cc

5. Cube and Rectangle Volumes are
found by measuring their Length X
Width X Height
BASE =
The unit of measurement is usually
in mL or cm3
……or any cubic
unit
AREA
Method #2: With a Regular Shape
Object

6. -cm3
= mL = cc
-A cube 1x1x1 cm can hold 1 mL
of water.
cc stands for Cubic Centimeters
EQUIVALENT MEASUREMENTS

7. Cube Rectangle Prism
L x W x H L x W x H (½ L x W) x H
Method #2: With a Regular Shape Object
b x h a x h ½ b x h

8. -Use DISPLACEMENT….the amount
of water pushed out of the way by
an object
-The unit of measurement is usually
in mL or cm3
or cc
