Comparing Densities: Regular Coke

Vs.

Diet Coke

INTRODUCTION Density is a measure of a substance’s mass relative to the amount of space it takes up .Density is measureable characteristic of ALL substances, and is generally recorded in grams per cubic centimetre (g/cm3) if the substance is a SOLID .If the substance is a LIQUID, and then grams per millilitre (g/ML) are used as units.

Density – D = M over V

Waters Density = 1 gram per millilitre of volume

In this experiment we will be taking a jar that is filled with 3L water and drop one can of regular coke and one can of diet coke into the jar to see which one has a higher density and which one has a lower density then the other .

Question: Which soft drink has a higher density, regular coke or diet coke?

Hypothesis:

I think that diet coke has a lower density then regular coke because the regular coke has more substances in it, and diet coke has less of all the stuff that’s in the regular one.
