As the graduations are cubic centi-meters, and as an error of 1 in the volume that weare measuring would be a considerable per cent of error,therefore, estimate tenths of a cubic centimeter as nearlyas you can. Make the readings indicated by the table of observationsand record in a similar tabular form near the top of theleft-hand page of note-book. Observations Reading before immersing the metal . . Heading after immersing the metal .... Number of lump of metal Material of lump On the left-hand page of the note-book, make fromyour apparatus, outline drawings similar to Fig. 7, andwrite a simple description of the experimental methodused. Discussion: What property of matter makes possible this methodof finding the volume ? Conclusion: Volume of lump of metal No. is cm. as . ..cm,3. 3 __ 3
