PROBLEM: How does metric volume compare with the English volume of measurement?
PREDICTION:
PROCEDURE:
Exercise 1: Using the measuring devices on your lab table, determine the measurements for the following: (Use water to help you develop a way to find the correct number.)
| _______ ML | 1 CUP | 
| _______ ML | 2 CUPS | 
| _______ ML | 1/4 CUP | 
| _______ ML | 1/2 CUP | 
| _______ ML | 1 TABLESPOON | 
| _______ ML | 2 1/2 CUPS | 
| _______ ML | 1 1/4 CUPS | 
EXERCISE 2:
You have 4 unlabeled containers. Try and figure out how many ml can fit into each container. Before you measure the volume, predict how much liquid each container can hold.
| PREDICTION | MEASURED AMOUNT | |
| BOTTLE 1 | ||
| BOTTLE 2 | ||
| BOTTLE 3 | ||
| BOTTLE 4 | 
CONCLUSION:
How many ml make 1 cup?
Since you figured out how many ml make 1 cup, how could you determine how many ml would fit into 3 1/2 cups?
