Question

If a solid object is placed into a graduated cylinder that contains 24.5 mL and the volume in the
graduated cylinder rises to 29.8 mL, what is the volume of the solid object?​

Answer 1

A

solid object is placed in a graduated cylinder originally holding 25.00mL of water. The water rises to 30.62mL mark. What is the volume (in cm^3) of the solid?

Answer 2

The volume of the solid object is 5.3 mL.

Given:

graduated cylinder that contains 24.5 mL

the volume in the graduated cylinder rises to 29.8 mL

To Find:

volume of the solid object

Solution:

The volume of the solid object can be found by subtracting the initial volume of the graduated cylinder (before adding the object) from the final volume of the graduated cylinder (after adding the object).

Volume of solid object = Final volume - Initial volume

Volume of solid object = 29.8 mL - 24.5 mL

Volume of solid object = 5.3 mL

Therefore, the volume of the solid object is 5.3 mL.
