A student gently drops an object weighing 15.7 g into an open vessel that is full of ethanol, so that a volume of ethanol spills out equal to the volume of the object. The experimenter
now finds that the vessel and its contents weigh 10.6 g more than the vessel full of ethanol only. The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/cm°. What is the density of the object?

- A researcher would like to determine whether there is any relationship between students’ grades and where they choose to sit in the classroom. Specifically, the researcher suspects that the better students choose to sit in the front of the room. To test this hypothesis, the researcher asks her colleagues to help identify a sample of n = 100 students who all sit in the front row in at least one class. At the end of the semester, the grades are obtained for these students and the average grade point average is M = 3.25. For the same semester, the average grade point average for the entire college is μ = 2.95 with σ = 1.10. Use a two-tailed test with α = .01 to determine whether students who sit in the front of the classroom have significantly different grade point averages than other students.NOTICE that you are asked to use α = .01!
