A piece of metal weighing 20.32 grams is added to a flask with a volume of 24.5 cm3. It is found that 18.52 grams of water must be added to the metal to fill the flask. What is the density of the metal?

Answer 1

density = mass/volume = 20.32/volume
Volume is 24.5 cc - 18.52 cc (assume a density of 1.00 g/cc for H2O).

Answer 2

1.0936
