Determination of Density
Conclusion:
1. In terms of accuracy, XRD method gave a more accurate reading of density. While, the
normal method gave the least accurate density value.
2. Compared to the Archimedes Principle, the Normal Method gave a less accurate value,
because of *insert reason of errors*. Air buoyancy? What?
