Answer:

A. 80 mL

B. Water displacement method

C. 1.5 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Determination of the volume of the ball.

Volume of water = 50 mL

Volume of water + ball = 130 mL

Volume of ball =?

Volume of ball = (Volume of water + ball) – (Volume of water)

Volume of ball = 130 – 50

Volume of ball = 80 mL

B. Determination of the name of the method used.

From the above, we can see that the volume of the ball was obtained by calculating the volume of water displaced by the ball.

Thus, the name of the method is WATER DISPLACEMENT METHOD for determining volume of substance.

C. Determination of the density of the ball.

Mass of ball = 120 g

Volume of ball = 80 mL

Density of ball =?

Density = mass / volume

Density of ball = 120 / 80

Density of ball = 1.5 g/mL
