The density of a solid sample is determined by the water displacement method, and the following data is obtained:
Volume (mL) Mass (g)
0.0 0.0
2.0 3.00
3.0 5.00
4.0 8.00
5.0 10.00
6.0 14.00
10.0 22.00
2A. Graph the above data using a graph paper or Excel spreadsheet.
2B. Calculate the slope of the line and determine the density using the correct units.
2C. The correct density of the sample is 2.25 g/mL. What is the percent error of the student's experimental value? Use significant figures.
