Fill the object to the top with different materials (cotton balls, LEGOs, beans, etc. 4. Use the scale to find the mass. 5. Infer the density of each container. 6. Label the container with the greatest density and the container with the least density. Use the mass of each as evidence. 7. Use the to record a summary. 8. Click the green to save.
