Conversion Between Mass and Moles of an Element (Screencast)
Atomic weights are used to convert the mass of a sample into the number of moles of the element in the sample and vice versa. Four examples are provided for practice.
Weight-Volume Relationships: Saturated Unit Weight
Students read how to determine and calculate the saturated unit weight for a given sample of soil or aggregate, based on the weight-volume relationship. Practice problems complete the activity.
Learners read the definition of atomic weight and obtain the weights of elements by viewing the Periodic Table and charts that list atomic weights by name or symbol.
Converting Between Standard and Metric Measurements
As a welder, you'll need to know how to convert between standard and metric measurements. Try this activity to practice converting between these two measurements. A conversion chart is provided to help you complete this work.
Learners read definitions of atomic symbols, atomic numbers, and mass numbers and then answer questions about the number of neutrons, protons, and electrons in select elements.
Weight- Volume Relationships: Saturated Density (Metric)
Students read how to determine and calculate the saturated density for a given sample of soil or aggregate, based on the mass-volume relationship. Practice problems complete the activity.
