Aluminum Foil Lab Part: Determining the Thickness
This lab was pretty straight forward. We started the lab with the given density of aluminum, a meter
stick, a rectangular piece of aluminum, and a balance. After obtaining these materials, we massed the
aluminum. Then, we calculated the volume, using mass (0.59 g) and density (2.7 g/cm^3). Then
after finding that value, we set volume equal to length (12.08) x width (11.90) x height (not found).
Then, dividing .22 mL (volume) by the length and width, we arrived at the height/thickness value,
0.015 mm.
