a chemist encounters an unknown metal. they drop the metal into a graduated cylinder containing water, and find the volume change is 5.3 ml. if the metal weighs 6.0 g, what is the density of the metal in g/ml?



Answer :

Assume you need to identify an unidentified metal. On a scale, you can find the metal's mass. By placing the object into a graduated cylinder filled with a known volume of water and measuring the difference in volume, you may calculate the volume.

What establishes an object's density?

The density of a substance is determined by the mass, size, and arrangement of its atoms. Density (D) is defined as the product of a substance's mass and volume. Differing densities apply to objects having the same volume but different masses.

Volumes will be calculated using three distinct techniques: geometrically (measured lengths); water displacement; and pycnometry, to demonstrate the implications of accuracy on data.
