Answer: ice float in water due to density differences. Water has a higher density than ice.less dense object in liquid with high density

Explanation: from density formulae.

D=M/V

Density of ice =Mass of ice/Volume of ice

D=23/25

D=0.92g/cm^3

Precautions to be taken for the displacement method
finlep [7]

Volume by Displacement. The displacement method (submersion, or dunking method) can be used to accurately measure the volume of the human body and other oddly shaped objects by measuring the volume of fluid displaced when the object is submerged.

The following precautions should be taken very observantly:-

The line of sight must be perpendicular to measuring scale to avoid parallax error. Formation of bubbles inside the cylinder should be completely avoided. Any bubbles within leads to wrong measurements.

A balloon filled with helium gas at 20°C occupies 4.91 L at 1.00 atm. The balloon is immersed in liquid nitrogen at -196°C, whil
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.25 L

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1 atm

T_1 = Initial Temperature = 20 °C

V_1 = Initial volume = 4.91 L

P_2 = Final pressure = 5.2 atm

T_2 = Final Temperature = -196 °C

V_2= Final volume

From ideal gas law we have

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1T_2}{T_1P_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1\times 4.91(273.15-196)}{(20+273.15)\times 5.2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=0.24849\ L\approx 0.25\ L

The pressure experienced by the balloon is 0.25 L
