A piece of metal with a mass of 131 g is placed in a 50 mL graduated cylinder. The water level rises from 20. mL to 35 mL. What is the density of the metal?
3 answers
density=mass/volume=131g/15ml
density = mass/volume
mass = 13.1 g
volume you get from the water displaced; i.e., 35 mL-20 ml = ?
mass = 13.1 g

That mass is 131 g. Bob P is right.
