The SI units of mass density are kg/m³, but there areseveral other common units. One of the most commonly used units ofmass density is gram per cubic centimeter, or g/cc. This is becausepure water has a mass density of 1 g/cc. It turns out that 1 mL ofliquid is equal to 1 cc of volume. So it is also possible toexpress the mass density of water as 1 g/mL. This makes water auseful tool since it is possible to use graduated cylinders tomeasure volumes.

An object with a mass of 38.0 gdisplaces 455.0 ml of water when it is completelyimmersed. What is the buoyant force on the mass? (Use

g = 9.8 N/kg

as necessary.)
