Question
a student has been given a solid sample and asked to calculate its density. She measured the mass of the solid sample and recorded it on her data sheet as 4.528g. She recorded the initial volume as 4.7 mL and final volume as 6.2 mL. What is the density of the sample
Expert Solution
Step 1
• The values provided in the question are:-
i) Mass of a solid sample, m = 4.528 g
ii) Initial volume of water in a measuring cylinder, V1 = 4.7 mL
iii) Volume of water in a measuring cylinder after adding solid sample, V2 = 6.2 mL
iv) Volume of solid sample, V = V2 - V1 = 6.2 mL - 4.7 mL = 1.5 mL
• We need to calculate the density, d of solid sample.
