3. How did the densities of your two rocks compare<br />
4. If both samples of rock came from the same larger rock, what possible reasons could you give<br />

Strategy Check<br />
Can you measure the mass <strong>and</strong> volume of several samples of solids<br />
Can you calculate the density of each solid<br />
Can determine if any of the samples are made of the same substance<br />
Can you identify samples based on their densities<br />
