Step 1
To find the density of the solid, we need to use the formula: Density = Mass / Volume We are given the mass of the solid, which is 6570 grams. Show more…

Use the density values in Table $2.9$ to solve each of the following problems: a. A graduated cylinder contains $18.0 \mathrm{~mL}$ of water. What is the new water level, in milliliters, after $35.6 \mathrm{~g}$ of silver metal is submerged in the water? b. A thermometer containing $8.3 \mathrm{~g}$ of mercury has broken. What volume, in cubic centimeters, of mercury spilled?
(a) If the density of an object is exactly equal to the density of a fluid, the object will (1) float, (2) sink, (3) stay at any height in the fluid, as long as it is totally immersed. (b) A cube $8.5 \mathrm{~cm}$ on each side has a mass of $0.65 \mathrm{~kg}$. Will the cube float or sink in water? Prove your answer.
