Question

An object placed in a graduated cylinder raised the volume from 12.2 mL to 14.5 mL. Find the volume of the object.

Answer 1

Answer:

2.3 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called finding the volume by displacement. By subtracting the final volume and the initial volume you can determine how much the volume changed when the object was added. That change in voulme represents the volume of the object, so in this case:\

14.5-12.2 = 2.3 mL
