Your teacher has asked you to determine the density of a liquid. You place a graduated cylinder on a balance and measure the mass at different volumes. The data is displayed in the table.

(A) Graph the data appropriately on the grid provided.

(B) Why does the best fit line not go through the origin? What is the significance of the intercept?

(C) Use the graph to determine the density of the fluid in kg/m3. Show your work.

(D) How might you improve the accuracy of the lab?
