Test Density with a Supersaturated Solution
Source Institutions
Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.

Dancing Raisins
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore density and it's relationship with mass.

Physics in the Kitchen: Sink or Swim Soda
Source Institutions
In the kitchen, learners can perform their own density investigation.

Sink or Float
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will make predictions and experiment with different objects to see if they sink or float.

Flinker
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a foam packing peanut "flink"--neither float away nor sink--in water. Learners experiment with materials to make a Flinker that "flinks" for 10 seconds.

Root Beer Float
Source Institutions
In this quick activity/demonstration about density, learners examine what happens when two cans of root beer--one diet and one regular--are placed in a large container of water.

Cartesian Diver
Source Institutions
In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.
