Question

A metal is found that has a mass of 27g and will displace 6mL of water. Calculate its density and identify the metal.

Answer 1

The density of metal = 4.5 g/ml, and the metal = Titanium

Further explanation

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

Density formula:

`\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}`

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

mass of metal=27 g

volume = 6 ml

The density :

`\tt \rho=(27)/(6)\\\\\rho=4.5~g/ml`

The metal with a density of 4.5 g/ml is Titanium
