Complete Question:
This diagram shows a marble with a mass of 3.8 grams (g) that was placed into 10 milliliters (mL) of water. Using the formula V M D = , what is the density of the marble?
(See attachment for full diagram)
Answer:
1.27 g/cm³
Explanation:
First, find the volume of rock:
Volume of rock = volume of water after rock was placed - volume of water before rock was placed
Volume of rock = 13 - 10 = 3ml
Density of rock = grams of rock per 1 cm³
Note: 1 ml = 1 cm³
Let x represent amount of rock per 1 cm³
Thus,
3.8g = 3 cm³
x = 1 cm³
Cross multiply
1*3.8 = 3*x
3.8 = 3x
3.8/3 = 3x/3
1.27 = x
Density of rock = 1.27 g/cm³
