You add 6.2 g iron to 23.80 mL of water and observe that the volume of iron and water together is 24.59 mL . Calculate the density
of iron. Answer in two significant figures with proper units.

Respuesta :

The density of the iron is 7.8 g/mL.

The density of an object is defined as mass per unit volume of the object i.e

Density = mass / volume

To solve the question given above, we'll begin by calculating the volume of the iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of water = 23.80 mL  

Volume of water + Iron = 24.59 mL

Volume of iron =?

Volume of iron = (Volume of water + Iron) – (Volume of water)

Volume of iron = 24.59 – 23.80

Volume of iron = 0.79 mL

Finally, we shall determine the density of the iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of iron = 0.79 mL

Mass of iron = 6.2 g

Density of iron =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 6.2 / 0.79

Density of iron = 7.8 g/mL

Therefore, the density of the iron is 7.8 g/mL
