Density Graphs Assignment: SNC1D1 Chemistry Date: Name

The document contains data from experiments measuring the mass and volume of four substances: A, B, C, and D. Students are asked to plot the data on graphs, determine the slope for each line of best fit, and calculate the densities of the substances. They are also asked to identify which substances would float in water based on their densities and identify substances C and D based on their calculated densities.
