Question

When a solid is immersed in a measuring cylinder, the water level rises by 24 mL. If the weight of the solid is 14 g, find its density. ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When a solid is immersed in a measuring cylinder, the water level rises by 24 mL. If the weight of the solid is 14 g, find its density.

Answer 2

$\huge \red{ \mid{ \fbox{ \tt{Solution}} \mid}}$

Mass of the solid = 144g

Volume of the solid = Rise in water level

= 24 mL = 24cm³

$\sf{ \therefore{ Density \: of \: solid = \frac{mass}{volume}}}$

$= \sf \frac{144g}{ 24cm³ }$

$= \sf{6g/cm³}$

Density = 6 g/cm³
