6. A piece of metal ore weighs 2.935 g. When a student places it into a graduated cylinder containing water,
the liquid level rises from 32.25 mL to 43.57 mL. What is the density of the ore in kg/m³? Show all unit
conversions clearly.
7. The natural distribution of the isotopes of a hypothetical element is 65.79% at a mass of 281.95 u, 25.12%
at a mass of 283.99 u, and the remainder has a mass of 286.94 u. Calculate the average atomic mass of the
element.
