Question

You place 12.0 milliliters of water in a graduated cylinder. Then you add 15.0 grams of metal to the water and the new water level is 13.91 milliliters. What is the density of the metal in grams per milliliter?

Answer 1

Hello, Im Mack :)

Here is the Correct Solution for your question:

Answer is 7.85 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

-volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

-volume = 13.91 - 12 = 1.91 mL

-Final Answer is: 7.85 g/mL

Hope this helped you out :)

Have a great day my friend\ and best of luck to your studies :)

Answer 2

The answer is 7.85 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

`density = (mass)/(volume) \\`

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 13.91 - 12 = 1.91 mL

We have

`density = (15)/(1.91) \\ = 7.853403141...`

We have the final answer as

7.85 g/mL

Hope this helps you
