What was the absolute difference in volume of the block using length x width x height versus volume of the block determined by displacement of water in section E?

1. Length of Block: 3.2 cm Width of Block: 1.9 cm Height of Block: 1.1 cm

Calculated Volume of Block:

3

6.688 cm

Calculated Volume of Block: 6.688 mL Calculations:

a. Volume = length x width x height

= 3.2 cm x 1.9 cm x 1.1 cm

=6.688 cm³

b. 1 cm³ = 1 mL

So, 6.688 cm³ = 6.688 mL

Initial Volume of Water in Graduated Cylinder: 50.0 mL Volume of Water in Graduated Cylinder after Addition of Block: 56.8 mL

Volume of Water Displaced by Block: 6.8 mL Calculations:

Volume of water displaced = (final volume initial volume) = (56.8 50.0) mL = 6.8 mL
