A cubic box is completely filled with 1,000.0 kg of water. What is the length of one side of the box, in meters? Explain your reasoning. Since the density of water is g/cm', then the volume of 1,000,000 g (1,000.0 kg) of water is cm³. A cubic box with a volume of cmº is cm on each side. Converting cm to meters, the cube is m on each edge.

A student places 14.8 mL of water in a graduated cylinder. The mass of the water and the graduated cylinder is found to be 41.721 grams, and then the balance is tared. After adding a number of metal pellets to the graduated cylinder, the liquid level in the cylinder is now 28.8 mL. The cylinder with the water and metal pellets is placed back on the balance, and the measured mass is 71.371 grams. Calculate the density of the metal pellets in g/mL. Do not include units in your answer.
