Question

a sample o aluminum is put in 10.5 mL of water. if the water rises to 13.5 mL when the aluminum is added, what is the density of the aluminum if it has a mass of 8.1 g

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 2.7 g/mL

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 13.5 - 10.5 = 3 mL

From the question we have

$density = \frac{8.1}{3}$

We have the final answer as

2.7 g/mL

Hope this helps you
