My chemistry class begins the semester with a review of basic science concepts. The concept of density is covered in this review. The students were able to use the electronic balances which you funded to find the mass of six unknown objects. They then found the volume of the objects and calculated the density. The density of each object was then compared to a chart in order to determine the identity of the unknown substance. Due to your generosity, we had reliable scales to obtain these measurements. There were also fewer students per group which led to more hands-on experiences with the lab. The lab scales will be used for future labs such as percent composition and molarity. I find myself looking for additional labs the students will enjoy which use the electronic scales. \r\n The students were excited to see the lab scales. Since they had not seen the older scales we were using, I explained to them how fortunate we were to have the new reliable scales. I also told the students of your generosity. We then discussed how to use and care for the new scales. We want to use these lab scales for many years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1733890716934,"projectUrl":"project/bring-balance-to-chemistry-with-lab-scal/8720196/","projectTitle":"Bring Balance to Chemistry With Lab Scales","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bernard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9714517"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_45207","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1045,"numTeachers":68,"percentFrplEligible":38,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":91,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":69.9,"schoolId":45207,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Volunteer High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Volunteer High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/hawkins-county-school-district/volunteer-high-school/45207"}
