A metal weighing 7.101 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 33.0 mL of water. The water level rose to the 37.4 mL mark
musickatia [10]
Volume of the metal = change in volume reading
Volume = 37.4 - 33
Volume = 4.4 ml

Density = mass / volume
Density = 7.101 / 4.4
Density = 1.61 g/ml

Answer:

8.3334%

Explanation:

125g NaCl/1500g H2O = 0.0833333333 ==> 8.3334%
