In this experiment, you will be graphing the relationship between mass and volume. You will be placing the volume on the x-axis, and the mass on the y-axis. Graphing the data in this way will
cause the slope of the linear regression to have a special meaning. What is the meaning of the
slope in this case?
The slope will tell us the volume when there is no mass
a
The slope will equal the average density of the solution
The slope will tell us the mass when there is no volume
a
The slope will tell us the inverse of the density of the solution.
