Question

You have a 100.0mL graduated cylinder containing 50.0mL of water. You drop. 193g piece of brass into the water. To what height does the water rise in the graduated cylinder.

Answer 1

Answer:

Rise in volume = 72.7 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water = 50.0 mL

Mass of brass piece = 193 g

Rise in volume = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the volume of brass.

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

8.5 g/mL = 193 g/ v

v = 193 g/ 8.5 g/mL

v = 22.71 mL

Rise in volume = volume of water + volume of brass

Rise in volume = 50.0 mL + 22.7 mL

Rise in volume = 72.7 mL
