Length Lab - For the length lab we started off by writing down some key things to know when using a ruler. Then we filled out multiple problems that were mainly about converting different metric units and the SI unit for length, which is meters. On our lab table there was a metal prism that we had to find the length, width, height, volume, and surface area of. Next, we did the same thing but with our school lockers, seeig if our previous predictions about the lengths were correct.

Volume Lab - For the volume lab, we measured the volume of an object using water displacement and just by using a ruler and the formula V= l(w). To find volume using water displacement, we used the formula volume displaced= initial volume-final volume while using a graduated cylinder and filling it with water. Once the object was dropped in the water rose and we found the volume. Also, we learned that the SI unit for volume is Liters.

Mass Lab - For the mass lab, we measured the mass of different objects using the triple beam balance. To use the triple beam balance, first we had to zero it out so that everything was ready for us to continue. Next, we placed the object(s) on the balance and moved different weights to certain places in order for the balance to be aligned with the zero. Then, we had found out the mass which is a key part in finding the density of an object which we didn't do in that lab, but will be sdoing later on. The SI unit for mass is Grams.

 * CHEMICAL FAMILIES: **

My chemical element is Niobium and my family is Transition Metals. I have heard of other families such as noble gases and halogens. The Noble Gases don't react with other elements and are nonmetals. The Halogens family all react with potassium and are also nonmetals. Very reactive! Salts- the products of reactions with potassium.
