it depends on the density of the stone. for example. water is 1.0g/cm3. so one gram of water is 1 cm3. different stones have different densities

take a burette or conical flask with water, note the initial reading, put the stone in it. note down the final reading. the volume of water displaced will be equal to the volume of the stone.
this practical session is applicable only if u hav the specimen in hand. or if u hav to find it theoretically, u have to know the density of the stone.

Your question cant be answered directly because I dont know what kind of stone is it. However, to calculate use Mass of stone (0.5820g) DIVIDE by Density of stone (unknown) EQUALS to Volume of stone...

Volume = mass / density.
You have the mass. You need the density. The density will depend on the type of rock. Your teacher gives you this number or you find it in a handbook depending on the type of stone.
For example:
Pumice is 0.64 g/l, Marble is 2.69 g/l. Depending on the density value you choose, your result will vary greatly.

Density = mass / volume
So Volume = mass / density
So what is the density of the rock.
You should have been listening in class!

Can not tell you unless you specify the density. I can not assume density value since you have not specified what type of stone it is.

Since no-one seems to give you the density of an AVERAGE stone, here it is: 2.75
