Question

Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/mL. A sample of aluminum weighs 67.5 g. If this sample is put into a graduated cylinder that has 35 mL, what volume will the water rise to?

Answer 1

Answer:

60 ml

Explanation:

Now, we know that density = mass/volume

Mass of aluminium = 67.5 g

volume of aluminium =?

density of aluminium = 2.70 g/mL

volume of aluminium = mass/density = 67.5/2.70 = 25 ml

Since volume of water in the cylinder = 35 ml

The water rises to ; 35 ml + 25 ml = 60 ml
