A general chemistry student found a chunk of metal in the basement of a friend's house. To figure out what it was, she used the ideas just developed in class about density. First she measured the mass of the metal to be 297.5 grams. Then she dropped the metal into a measuring cup and found that it displaced 15.2 mL of water. Calculate the density of the metal. Density = 9/mL Use the table below to decide the identity of the metal. This metal is most likely Densities of Some Common Substances
