Density

During the last couple science lessons we studied density. After finding the mass of a liquid and dividing it by its volume, we figured out the density of water, corn syrup, and oil. Then I put all 3 liquids in one beaker and we observed what happened: they moved into separate layers! A neat thing to make at home is your own "lava lamp."
