The eureka beaker is a beaker to find out the density of irregular shaped objects. Archimedes invented it when he stepped into his bath and saw that the water level rose. He shouted "Eureka!" which means "i have found it!".
Soluble means able to be dissolved. Here are some sentences.Is salt water soluble?That chemical is only soluble in ether.My teacher wants me to find out everything that is soluble in oil.
Molten iron is the same element as solid iron, so the chemical symbol is Fe. Iron is not soluble in water, so you won;t find Fe(aq)
No. Like virtually all ionic compounds copper II sulfate is a solid at room temperature. It is, however, soluble in water so you would be able to find an aqueous solution of t.
It is useful because no matter how much you have of the same substance, it will always have the same density. The mathematical equation to find the density of matter is to divide the mass by the volume. So you get an average, the density. Water has a density of 1. However, oil has a density of something like .9, so it floats on water. That way, by just looking at the numbers, you can tell what is what.
Mass divided by volume, just like anything else.
To find the volume of an irregular solid, use the water displacement method. Immerse the item fully into a filled container of water and measure the liquid that overflows. *If the material is porous or soluble, some improvisation will be necessary, such as a thin plastic coating.
Fill the can to the overflow level with water.Very gently lower the irregular solid into the can and make sure to catch all the overflow.Measure the volume of overflow.That is the same as the volume of the irregular solid.Warning! This method will be a total disaster if the solid is soluble in water. You could try any other liquid instead.

You will need the mass and volume of the block. To find mass, use an electronic balance. To find volume, use length x breadth x height. For irregular solid, use the water displacement method. The density is mass divided by volume.

The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.

The best way to find the volume of an irregular solid is to submerge it in a liquid and see how much the liquid rises. You can also use calculus and tripple integrals, but that gets really sticky.
So that the irregular solid isn't wet when you place it on the balance, since that would make it appear to have a greater mass than it actually does.
