Weight Lab

Yesterday, we finished up our lab when we guess how heavy an object is and then actually weighing it. After we guess and weigh the item, we calculated the percent of how off we were. I was usually 45% wrong because the objects seem to weigh the same and my guess would be really off. I was somewhat close when we weighed mass and I was really off when I was trying to predict the volume of small test tubes, glass bottles, paper and plastic cups. Another problem was sometimes calculating the percentage wrong. All in all, the lab was fun because I was able to guess the weight and I was off by a lot.
