A piece of bismuth with a mass of 22.5 g is submerged in 46.3 cm3 of water in a graduated cylinder. The water level increases to 48.6 cm3. What is the density of indium to the proper number of significant figures

Answer:

[tex]\rho = 9.78\frac{g}{cm^3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, in order to compute the density of bismuth we need to apply the formula:

[tex]\rho =\frac{m_{Bi}}{V_{Bi}}[/tex]

Nonetheless, the volume is computed by the difference:

[tex]V_{Bi}=48.6-46.3=2.30cm^3[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\rho = \frac{22.5g}{2.30cm^300}\\\\\rho = 9.78\frac{g}{cm^3}[/tex]

Regards.
