Answer:
Density = 10.01 g/cm³
Explanation:
The density of a substance can be found by using the formula
[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume} [/tex]
From the question
mass of metal = 54.52 g
Volume of metal = new volume - original volume of water in the cylinder
That's
new volume = 28.85 mL
original volume of water = 23.44 mL
Volume of metal
= 28.85 - 23.44 = 5.41 mL
Next we convert the volume from mL to cm³
1 mL = 1 cm³
5.41 mL = 5.41 cm³
Substitute the values into the above formula and solve
That's
[tex]Density = \frac{54.52}{5 .41} \\ = 10.07763[/tex]
We have the final answer as
Density = 10.01 g/cm³
Hope this helps you
