🔬 Part 1: Understanding Density

1. What is density?

How hot or cold something is

How heavy something is for its size

How colourful something is

2. In our experiment, which liquid was the heaviest and stayed at the bottom?

Oil

Water

Honey

3. Which liquid floated on top because it was the lightest?

Oil

Water

Honey

4. What happened when we poured the liquids together?

They all mixed together

They formed separate layers

They disappeared

✏️ Part 2: Drawing and Observations

5. Draw what you saw in your cup during the experiment. Label each layer.

6. Fill in the blanks using these words: heavy, light, layers, density

When liquids have different _____________, they don't mix together. The _____________ liquid sinks to the bottom, and the _____________ liquid floats on top. This creates _____________ that we can see.

7. Explain why the oil floated on top of the water.

🌊 Part 3: Real World Connections

8. Where might you see liquid layers in the real world? Tick all that apply.

Oil spills on the ocean

Salad dressing that separates

A rainbow in the sky

Lava lamp

9. What is one new thing you learned about density today?

10. If you had treacle (golden syrup), water, and vegetable oil, what order would you pour them to make the best layers? Write 1, 2, 3 next to each liquid.

_____ Vegetable oil (lightest)

_____ Water (medium weight)

_____ Treacle (heaviest)
