The volume of water, at room temperature, displaced by a series of standard weights is recorded. The results are given in Table 5 and the calibration curve is plotted in Figure 2.

Use the calibration curve in Figure 2 to determine the density of a block of metal that displaces a volume of 4.0 cm³.
