A sample of a mineral solid weighing 28.5 g was added to a graduated cylinder filled with to a level of 20.3 mL. As a result, the water level rose and the volume of the water with the mineral solid was 30. 5 mL. What is the density of the mineral

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.8 g/mL is the density of the mineral.

Explanation:

The mass, [tex]m=28.5\ g[/tex]

Volume of the object = Volume of water level rose - Initial volume of water = 30.5 mL - 20.3 mL = 10.2 mL

The expression for the calculation of density is shown below as:-

[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

[tex]\rho=\frac{28.5\ g}{10.2 mL}=2.8\ g/mL[/tex]

2.8 g/mL is the density of the mineral.
