A4.86 g piece of metal was placed in a graduated cylinder containing 15.5 ml of water. the water level rose to 17.3 ml. what is the density of the metal. i need the steps of how to solve it to so i can use a formula to work out other problems.

Answer : The density of metal is, 2.7 g/ml

Solution : Given,

Mass of metal = 4.86 g

Volume of initial water = 15.5 ml

Volume of rose water = 17.3 ml

First we have to calculate the volume of metal.

Volume of metal =  volume of rose water - volume of initial water

Volume of metal = 17.3 - 15.5 = 1.8 ml

Now we have to calculate the density of metal.

Formula used :

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the density of metal.

Therefore, the density of metal is, 2.7 g/ml

water at room temperature is flowing through a pipe with pressure taps located 10 ft apart along one section of the pipe, which are connected to a mercury (s=13.6) manometer.
