Answer:
Density of metal = 1.89 g/mL
Explanation:
Volume of the metal = Volume of water and metal system - Volume of water
Volume of water and metal system = 44.5 mL
Volume of water = 40.0 mL
Volume of the metal = 44.5 mL - 40.0 mL = 4.5 mL
Given, mass = 8.5 g
The expression for density is:
[tex]Density (\rho)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Volume(V)}[/tex]
[tex]Density (\rho)=\frac{8.5\ g}{4.5\ mL}[/tex]
Density of metal = 1.89 g/mL
