24g copper is submerged in water in a graduated cylinder, and the total volume increases by 2.7 mL. who’s is the density of copper?

Respuesta :

Answer:

8.89g/mL

Explanation:

24g/2.7mL = 8.89g/mL

The density of copper is 8.9 g/mL.

When copper is submerged in water, the volume of liquid displaced is equal to the volume of the solid, that is, 24 g of copper (m) has a volume (V) of 2.7 mL. We can calculate its density (ρ) using the following expression.

[tex]\rho = \frac{m}{V} = \frac{24g}{2.7 mL} = 8.9 g/mL[/tex]

The density of copper is 8.9 g/mL.
