Use volume displacement to determine the volume of this metal sample to the nearest 0.1 ml.

The volume displacement method is a manifestation of Archimedes' Principle. This principle states that the volume of the object placed on a known volume of water, is equal to the volume of water displaced. Actually, it could just be any liquid. Thus, whatever the displaced volume is, that is equivalent to the volume of the metal sample. I can't give an exact answer because there is no given information. But the concept works that way.
