Asample containing 43.98g of metal pellets is poured into a graduated cylinder initially containing 13.8 ml of water, causing the water level in the cylinder to rise to 21.3 ml. calculate the density of the metal.

5.9 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

        Mass of metal = 43.98 g

Initial level of water = 13.8 mL

Final level of water = 21.3 mL

Calculations:

The picture below illustrates what's happening in this experiment.

The water level was originally at 13.8 mL.

Then you added the metal. It fell to the bottom and displaced its volume of water.

The water level rose to 21.3 mL, so

Volume of metal = volume of displaced water

                               = 21.3 mL – 13.8 mL

                               = 7.5 mL

                               = 7.5 cm³

               Density = mass/volume

                               = 43.98/7.5

                               = 5.9 g/cm³

oh it is true if thats what you are asking
