A cubic box is completely filled with 1,331 g of water. What is the length of one side of the box, in meters? m Explain your reasoning. Since the density of water is g/cm, then the volume of 1,331 g of water is m³. A cubic box with a volume of cm³ is cm on each side. Converting cm to meters, the cube is m on each side.

Using Two or More Conversion FactorsIt is often necessary to use several conversion factors in solving a problem. As an example,let’s convert the length of an 8.00-m rod to inches. The table on the back inside coverdoes not give the relationship between meters and inches. It does, however, give the relationshipbetween centimeters and inches 11 in. = 2.54 cm2. From our knowledge of SIprefixes, we know that 1 cm = 10-2 m. Thus, we can convert step by step, first from metersto centimeters and then from centimeters to inches:

1. Comment on the differences in measurements obtained on the same objects using the meter stick, ruler, and tape measure. How close are they to one another? 2. Which type of electronic balance gives you the most accurate mass? Why? 3. Comment on the differences found between the different volumetric measuring devices. How does the volume of the graduated cylinder compare to that obtained by the volumetric flask (i.e. are the volumes the same?) Which of these measuring devices gives the most accurate volume? Which of these measuring devices would you consider the easiest to work with?
