Set of 5 Equal-Mass Blocks – 20 g

SKU: PHY5034

Product Description

Educational set of 5 blocks made from different materials, each with the same mass of 20 g.

Because each block is made from a different metal, the blocks have different volumes and dimensions depending on the density of the material. This allows students to clearly observe that materials with the same mass can occupy different volumes.

An excellent hands-on tool for studying mass, volume, density, and the physical properties of materials.

Materials Included

The set contains five 20 g blocks:

Total mass of all 5 blocks: 100 g

Educational Principle

All five blocks have the same mass, but their volumes differ because each material has a different density.

This allows students to observe that:

• Objects with the same mass can have different volumes

• Different materials have different densities

• A denser material occupies less volume for the same mass

• Mass, volume, and density are directly related

The fundamental relationship studied is:

Density = Mass ÷ Volume

Educational Applications

This set can be used to:

• Compare different materials with identical mass

• Observe differences in volume between metals

• Study density experimentally

• Identify materials based on their physical properties

• Compare experimental results with accepted density values

• Develop observation, measurement, calculation, and data-analysis skills

• Perform quantitative experiments using balances and measuring instruments
