The professor holds up a glass of water in front of his chemistry students and asks them to guess its weight, without actually weighing it, to demonstrate that unless an object is weighed they cannot know its exact weight. He uses this example to teach the students a lesson about making assumptions without concrete evidence. The professor stresses that perceptions can be wrong and facts are needed to truly understand something, foreshadowing the lesson he intends to impart about carefully weighing evidence.
