1. In the determination of the density of a rectangular metal bar, a student made the
following measurements: length, 8.53 cm; width, 2.4 cm; height 1.0 cm; mass, 57.7064 g.
(a) Calculate the density of the metal following the rule of significant figures. Express
your answer in (a) to (b) pound per gallon; (c) ton per cubic feet.

2. A container has a mass of 78.91 g when empty and 103.72 g when filled with water. The
density of water is 1.0000 g/cm3. (a) Calculate the volume of the container. (b) When
filled with an unknown liquid, the container had a mass of 88.42 g. Calculate the density
of the unknown liquid. Note: Answers must follow the rule of significant figures.

3. Wire is often sold in pound spools according to the wire gauge number. That number
refers to the diameter of the wire. How many are in a 10-lb spool of 12-gauge aluminum
wire? A 12-gauge wire has a diameter of 0.0808 in. Aluminum has a density of 2.70
g/cm3. Consider the wire as a cylinder. Note: Answer must follow the rule of significant
figure. Tip: Converting a unit to another does not follow the rule of significant figures
