Prescribed practical — Prescribed Practical P4

P4 covers the mass–volume relationship for liquids and regular solids. The specification separately requires measuring the density of an irregular solid by displacement; that irregular-solid step is not labelled P4.

Measuring density

Measure an aluminium block with a ruler, find a stone's volume by displacement and weigh a liquid in a measuring cylinder, then calculate each density and compare the block with the data-book value.

This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
