A piece of metal with a mass of 611 g is placed into a graduated cylinder that contains 25.1 mL of water rising the water level 256.7 mL what is the density of the metal?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is

2.64 g/mL

Explanation:

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

[tex]density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\ [/tex]

From the question

mass = 611 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 256.7 - 25.1 = 231.6 mL

The density of the metal is

[tex]density = \frac{611}{231.6} \\ = 2.638169257...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

2.64 g/mL

Hope this helps you
