About This Product
The sphere is lowered gently into a beaker or clear container of liquid and students note whether it floats, sinks or remains suspended. Weighing it and finding its volume lets them calculate its density as mass divided by volume and compare it with that of the liquid. Enquiries from Gabon, Chile, Bahrain, Bulgaria and Sudan for the Density sphere receive an export quotation.
