Page 4Weight Test (Digital Scale)RESULTSWeight of UNKNOWN object and its black container + lid = ________________ gWeight of 1 chocolate chip and extra black container + lid = _________________ gWeight of 1 M&M and extra black container + lid = _________________ gWeight of 1 pinto bean and extra black container + lid = _________________ gWeight of 1 penny and extra black container + lid = _________________ gWeight of 1 black bead and extra black container + lid = _________________ g5. Do any of the known objects have about the same weight (within + or - 0.10 g) as the UNKNOWN object? If so, which one(s)? Which are different? Write down the names of the objects in their appropriate spaces.Same weight (within + or - 0.10 g) as UNKNOWN = ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Different weight (at least 0.10 g more or less) than UNKNOWN = ______________________________________________________________________________________________________6. Can you eliminate any of the items from being in your UNKNOWN container based on the results of the digital scale (weight) test? Which one(s) can you eliminate and not eliminate?Eliminated (not in unknown container) = ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Cannot be eliminated (could be in unknown container) = ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________(3rd ed.)
