The density of aluminum is 2.70g/cm(cubid) and the density of chromium is 7.19 g/cm(cubid). If equal Masses (1g) of aluminum and chromium are transferred to equal columes of water in separate graduated cylinders, which graduated cylinder would have the greates volume change? Explain.

correction: equal Volumes of water**
They both sink (density greater than 1 g/cc), so the one with the greatest volume will displace more water.
They each have the same mass, so the one with less density has more volume.
The one with less density is aluminum.
