Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of the marble is 10 mL.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of water = 10 mL

Rise in water = 10 mL

Volume of marble =.?

From the question given above, the water level rise by 10 mL when a glass marble was placed into the water.

Therefore,

Rise in water = 10 mL = volume of marble.
