Question

Calculate the density of the solid when mass of the solid is 438.6 g initial vol of water in measuring cylinder is 30 ml final volume of water when solid is immersed in water is 116 ml. Express your answer in kg/m³.Calculate the density of the solid when mass of the solid is 438.6 g initial vol of water in measuring cylinder is 30 ml final volume of water when solid is immersed in water is 116 ml. Express your answer in kg/m³.

Answer 1

Mass of solid = 72g

Initial volume1 = 24ml

Final volume2 = 42ml

Volume of solid = V_2-V_{1\ }=\ 42\ -\ 24\ =\ 18cm^3V

2

−V

1

= 42 − 24 = 18cm

3

D = \frac{M}{V}=\frac{72}{18}=4.0\ g\ cm^{-3}
