- Porosity is a measure of the void or empty spaces in a material and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume. The density of the solid material used to create 7 pieces of 0.72 cm diameter and 0.92 cm height cylindrical beads is determined to be 1.57 g/mL. These beads were then placed in a flask and was filled to the 35 mL mark with a salt solution. The total weight measured of the beads and the salt solution was 42.49 g. Upon further inspection, it was found that manufacturing defects caused the measured porosity of the beads to be at 21%. Assuming that the solution was able to fully fill the empty spaces inside the beads, calculate the density of the salt solution.
