Question

Find the density of an 8 gram rock if the water in a graduated cylinder rises from 25.0 mL to

Answer 1

To measure the density of the stone placed in a graduated cylinder let us follow these steps bellow

1. Measure the volume of water poured into a graduated cylinder
2. Place the object in the water and remeasure the volume.
3. The difference between the two volume measurements is the volume of the object.
4. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the object.

We know that the formula for density is given as

Given data

Mass = 8gram

Initial Volume of water in cylinder = 25mL

Final Volume of water in cylinder  = 29mL

Hence the volume of the rock  = 29-25 = 4mL

Therefore the density of the rock = 8/4 = 2 g/mL
