An irregularly shaped stone was lowered into a graduated cylinder holding
a volume of water equal to 13.5 mL. The water level rose to a height of 22.7
mL. If the mass of the stone was 35 g, what was its density?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.80 g/mL

Explanation:

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

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

From the question

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 22.7 - 13.5 = 9.2 mL

We have

[tex]density = \frac{35}{9.2} \\ = 3.804347[/tex]

We have the final answer as

3.80 g/mL

Hope this helps you
