A graduated cylinder is filled to an initial volume of 25mL. A solid object is dropped into the graduated cylinder. The final volume of the graduated cylinder is 60mL. The mass of the object is 140g. What is the density of the solid object?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 4 g/mL

Explanation:

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

[tex]density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\ [/tex]

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 60 - 25 = 35 mL

From the question we have

[tex]density = \frac{140}{35} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

4 g/mL

Hope this helps you
