(but does not require a calculator).
Calculate the density of an irregularly shaped solid reporting to the correct number of significant
figures. The volume of the solid was found by placing the solid into a graduated cylinder filled with
water with an initial volume of 15.0-mL. The final water level volume with the solid was 17.0-mL.
The mass of the solid was 10.0 g.
• This calculation involves multiple operations. Make sure you do the operations separately and
round at end.
O 5 g/mL
O 5.00 g/mL
O 2.0 g/mL
5.0 g/mL
O 2.00 g/mL

Respuesta :

The density is:

D = 10g/2mL = 5 g/mL

The correct option is the first one.

How to get the density?

Remember that density is defined as the quotient between mass and volume.

We know that the mass of the solid is 10.0 grams.

And the volume of the solid is given by the difference between the volume of the water alone (15.0 mL) and the water with the solid (17 mL).

V = 17mL - 15mL = 2mL

Then the density is:

D = 10g/2mL = 5 g/mL

The correct option is the first one.
