** 12. You have a block of unknown material of mass 18 grams and volume 20 cm3. You have a bucket of water (p filled right to the brim. 1 g/cm3) and a bucket of alcohol (p = 0.79 g/cm3). Both buckets are a) What is the density of the block? b) Which of the buckets, if any, does it float in? Explain your reasoning c) When the block is placed slowly and carefully in the bucket of water, how many cm3 of water spill over the edge? d) When the block is placed slowly and carefully in the bucket of alcohol, how many cm3 of alcohol spill over the edge? e) If you had a 37-gram chunk of this material (the same material as the block), what would its volume be?

Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals.

What mass of water is displaced? b. What is the volume of the bone? c. What is its average density?
