Question

A block of metal has a mass of 51.11 g and displaces 71.46 ml of water. Calculate the density of the metal in g/ml.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is

0.07 g/mL

Explanation:

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

$density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

From the question

mass of metal = 5.11 g

volume = 71.46 mL

The density of the metal is

$density = \frac{5.11}{71.46} \\ = 0.071508536...$

We have the final answer as

0.07 g/mL
