Density Lab Data

In this worksheet, students work with collected laboratory data to determine densities and analyze possible sources of measurement error. They calculate densities for multiple trials, find averages, and interpret results based on significant figures and precision. The exercise emphasizes experimental accuracy and scientific reasoning. Students also identify unknown substances based on given data tables, promoting comparison and critical analysis. This practical lab-style activity enhances students’ understanding of data reliability in science.
