An unknown sample is put in a large graduated cylinder. The water
level in the graduated cylinder was 20.5 mL and the final level
was 38.3 mL. If the mass of the object was determined to be
88.4 g, what is the density of the metal?

Answer:

The answer is

4.97 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 of object = 88.4 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 38.3 - 20.5 = 17.8

volume = 17.8 mL

The density of the object is

[tex]density = \frac{88.4}{17.8} \\ = 4.966292134...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

4.97 g/mL

Hope this helps you
