Kerosene is added to a graduated cylinder until the kerosene level is 20.73 mL, and the mass of the graduated cylinder with kerosene is found to be 61.3645 g. A sample of rock salt is submerged in the kerosene, and the kerosene level rises to 26.10 mL. The mass of the graduated cylinder with kerosene and rock salt is found to be 73.0801 g. Determine the density of the rock salt, in g/cm3, if the density of kerosene is 0.785 g/mL. Write your final answer, to the correct number of significant figures, in the box below. Do not write the units of your final answer. Show your numerical set-up(s) in Question #5b.
