Students are given three cubes made of unidentified materials. They need to determine whether or not the three cubes are made of the same material. They measure the mass of each cube and record it in the table. A student immediately concludes that the cubes are made of three different materíals. .Cube Mass (g) 42 15 C 7. What observation would best support the students' conclusion? A. The cubes all have thesame volume. B. The cubes all have a shiny appearance. C. The cubes are all attracted to a magnet. D. The cubes all conduct heat.

Working in a laboratory, you carefully measure 80.00 mL of solution ten times in a row, each time adding it to a flask. Your supervisor then measure the total; there's 900.0 mL in the flask. You redo the entire procedure, and again the total is.900.0 mL. Your measurements were: O Inaccurate O Imprecise O Perfect O Inaccurate and imprecise W
