The density of metal will be "0.469 g/mL".

The given values in the question are:

  • Mass of metal = 1.5 g
  • Volume of metal or Volume change = 3.2 mL

Now,

The density of metal will be:

→ [tex]Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

By substituting the given values, we get

→               [tex]= \frac{1.5}{3.2}[/tex]

→               [tex]=0.469 \ g/mL[/tex]

Thus the above is the appropriate answer.

The density of the metal is 0.47 g/mL

The density of an object is defined as the mass of the object per unit volume of the object.

Density = mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the metal. This is illustrated below:

Volume of metal = change in volume of water = 3.2 mL

Mass of metal = 1.5 g

Density of metal =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 1.5 / 3.2

Density of metal = 0.47 g/mL

Therefore, the density of the metal is 0.47 g/mL
