Answer:
A. Coal
Explanation:
= water displaced by rock
Water displaced by rock = volume of water after rock is dropped into the cylinder - volume of water before the rock was dropped into the water
Water displaced by the rock = 180 ml - 150 ml = 30 ml
Density of rock:
40 grams => 30 ml
x grams => 1 ml
Cross multiply
1*40 = 30*x
40 = 30x
40/30 = 30x/30
1.3 = x
Density of rock = 1.3 g per 1 ml
Recall: 1 ml = 1 cm³
Therefore,
Density of the rock = 1.3 g/cm³
1.3 g/cm³ falls within the range of 1.1 - 1.4 g/cm³
Therefore, the rock is identified as Coal.
