Question

The volume of a solid of mass 500 g is
350 cm3. What will be the mass of water
displaced by this solid?
(1) 700 g
(2) 350 g
(3) 200 g
(4) 100 g​

Answer 1

Explanation:

=Density = Mass/Volume = 500 gm / 350 cm3 = 1.43 gm/cm3

(B) The solid will displace a volume of water equal to it's own volume since the density of this solid is greater than the density of water.

Mass of water = Density of water x Volume of water = 1 gm/cm3 x 350 cm3 = 350 gm
