=__Model 1-1 Science Lesson Experiment (Identity of the Unknown Objects)__=

-Team Members:
Billy, Bob, Janice, Lily

-Materials:

 * triple-beam balance
 * 500 mL graduated cylinder
 * water
 * ruler
 * unknown objects
 * calculator
 * computer
 * internet access

-Methods:
First, observe the unknown objects.

Second, calculate the densities of the unknown objects. A. For cubed unknown objects: B. For non-cube unknown object:
 * 1) Mass each unknown object.
 * 2) Measure the length of one side of the cube. Multiply the length three times to calculate the volume of the cube.
 * 3) Calculate each density. Density = mass/volume.
 * 1) Mass the unknown object.
 * 2) Fill the graduated cylinder with water up to 200mL.
 * 3) Drop the unknown object into the graduated cylinder.
 * 4) Subtract 200 from the new water level to get the displacement. The displacement is the volume of the unknown.
 * 5) Calculate the density. Density = mass/volume.

Third, research densities of the possible materials on the internet.

Fourth, compare our calculated densities with the accepted densities of various materials to determine the identities of the unknowns. Use qualitative observations to help with identifications.

-Final Identifications:
 (Develop your final ID's of the objects based upon your research of the densities, the calculated densities, and the qualitative research/ collected qualitative data. Create a table with the object #, final guess re: ID, and your REASONING.)
