A sample containing 16.93 metal pellets is poured into a graduated cylinder containing 11.2 of water, causing the water level in the to 19.7 Calculate the density of the metal.

Blank = g/ml

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 1.99 g/mL

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

[tex]density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\[/tex]

From the question

mass = 16.93 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 19.7 - 11.2 = 8.5 mL

We have

[tex]density = \frac{16.93}{8.5} \\ = 1.9917647058...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

1.99 g/mL

Hope this helps you
