2. Measure the mass of each coin separately and record the masses below. Why were
several coins used for the density calculation instead of one.
4.90g 5.00g
4.939
4.979
5.059
3. Ethyl acetate has a characteristic fruity odor and is used as a solvent in paint lacquers
and perfumes. An experiment requires 0.985 kg ethyl acetate. What volume is this (in
liters)? The density of ethyl acetate is 0.902g/mL.
4. (EC) 70.4g of hematite (iron ore) was placed in a flask whose maximum volume was 55.0
mL. The flask with hematite was then carefully filled with water too the maximum line and
re-massed. The hematite and water had a mass of 109.3g. The density of the water was
0.996g/cm³. What was the density of the hematite?
