Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given A piece of wax weighs 18.03 g in air. A pie

metal is found to weigh 17.03 g in water. It is

to the wax and both together weigh 15.23

water. Then, the specific gravity of wax is

Weight of wax in air W1 = 18.03 g

Weight of metal piece in water = 17.03 g

Weight of metal piece and wax in water = 15.23 g

Therefore weight of wax in water W = 15.23 – 17.03  

                                                          = - 1.8 g

Specific gravity of wax = weight of wax in air / weight of wax in air – weight of wax in water

                                      = 18.03 / 18.03 – (- 1.8)

                                      = 18.03 / 19.83
