In Table $7-2,$ which object's observed density differs least from its uncompressed density? Why?
Sri K.
To determine the density of a material, a scientist first weighs it (Figure $1.9 a$ ). She would then add it to a graduated cylinder (see Figure $1.9 b$ ) that contains some water (see Figure $1.9 c$ ) and record the mass, volume of water, and volume of water plus the metal in her notebook. Use the photographs as the source of the data to calculate the density. Make sure you express the density to the correct number of significant digits.
How is the density of solid water compared to that of liquid water atypical among substances? Why is this significant?
