Question

An object weighting 9.6 grams is placed in a graduated cylinder displacing the volume from 10.0mL to 13.2 mL

what is the volume of this object in mL

EXPLAIN STEP BY STEPP

Answer 1

The volume of object is 3.2 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object = M = 9.6 g

Initial volume of liquid:
`V_1 = 10.0\ ml`

Final volume of liquid after displacement:
`V_2 = 13.2\ ml`

Total volume of the displaced object inside a graduating cylinder will be given as difference between the final volume and initial volume of the expanding object.

`V = V_2-V_1 = 13.2 -1 0.0 = 3.2\ ml`

V = 3.2 ml
