         <description><![CDATA[<div>Materials Needed: <br>Box, Water, Wood, Ice, Brick, Aluminum, and Styrofoam <br><br>Ask a Question: <br>At what density will an object sink?<br><br>Background Research:<br>According to ACS Chemistry for Life (2017), density is the amount of mass per certain amount of volume. The greater the mass of the object, the more likely the object is to sink. <br><br>What is Density (2017). In <em>ACS Chemistry for Life</em>. Retrieved August 5, 2017, from http://www.middleschoolchemistry.com/lessonplans/chapter3/lesson1</div><div><br></div><div>It is important to note that "buoyancy arises from the fact that fluid pressure increases with depth and from the fact that the increased pressure is exerted in all directions so that there is an unbalanced upward force on the bottom of a submerged object" ("Buoyancy," 2017). <br><br>Archimedes' Principle states that a submerged object is "equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the object" ("Buoyancy," 2017). <br><br>Buoyancy (2017). In <em>Buoyancy</em>. Retrieved August 5, 2017, from http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/pbuoy.html</div><div><br></div><div>Hypothesis:<br>Of the objects listed, those that have a 5kg mass or less will float. <br><br>Experiment:<br>See post titled Experiment<br><br>Conclusion: <br>Each of the objects contained different masses, and the lighter masses tended to float. Through my experiment, it proved that my hypothesis was correct to an extent, as I did not have an object at 5kg to prove fully. When the ice was put into the water at 4.60kg, it barely floated as the water measurement was 104.60L. When the 10kg brick was placed into the water, it sank with the water measurement at 105L. Though there was a large difference in mass between the brick and ice, the measurement of the water only has a .40L difference. Moreover, the weight of the aluminum and brick are different, however, the measurement of water is the same. Therefore, with this experiment, it can be observed that an object with a mass such as 10kg or more, will sink. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Mass of Objects:<br>Styrofoam: 0.75 kg<br>Wood: 2.00 kg<br>Ice: 4.60 kg<br>Brick: 10 kg<br>Aluminum: 13.50 kg<br><br>What happened when each object was put in the box of water?<br>1. When styrofoam was placed in the water, it floated. The measurement of the water was a 100.75L. <br>2. When wood was placed in the water, it floated. The measurement of the water was 102L.<br>3. When ice was placed in the water, it floated, but the majority of the object was below water (like an iceberg). The measurement of the water was 104.60L.<br>4. When the brick object was placed into the water, it sank. The measurement of the water was 105L, which is very close to that of the ice that floated.<br>5. When the aluminum was placed into the water, it sank. The measurement of the water was 105L. </div>]]></description>
