Density Formula Triangles
Supplemental TEKS: 6.6(D) · 6.2(C) · Physics.2(C) · IPC.2(C)
Helps students calculate density, mass, and volume and understand mathematical relationships among measurable physical properties of matter.
Curriculum connections
Direct connections address a component of a standard, not the entire expectation. Supplemental connections support instruction or extend a lesson. Summaries are paraphrased from current official TEA standards.
Middle school
6th Grade Science
Compare the density of substances relative to various fluids.
Pair mass and volume calculations with relative-density comparisons. Calculating density is not explicitly required by this expectation.
Use mathematical calculations to assess quantitative relationships in data.
Use measurements or graph data to practice quantitative calculations; this is scientific-practice support, not a content requirement for the formula.
High school
Physics
Use mathematical calculations to assess quantitative relationships in data.
Practice mass, density and volume calculations as quantitative support, not a Physics density content standard.
Integrated Physics & Chemistry
Use mathematical calculations to assess quantitative relationships in data.
Practice quantitative calculations with measured mass and volume data.
