The mass of a metal ball was 20.350 g. The volume of the water in a 25 mL graduated cylinder was increased from 16.05 to 17.90 mL when the metal ball was placed in the cylinder. What is the density of the metal ball

Sagot :

Answer:

11000 g/L

Explanation:

Since density is mass divided by volume, find the volume of the metal ball by subtracting the initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder from the ending volume. In this case, the volume would be 17.90 mL - 16.05 mL =  1.85 mL = 0.00185 L. Then using the formula for density, calculate 20.350 g / 0.00185 L = 11000 g/L.
