A solid has a mass of 200g in air and when partly immersed in a certain liquid it has a mass of 160g. Given that the relative density of the liquid is 0.80, calculate the volume of the solid immersed in the liquid.

Answer 1

the displaced liquid has a mass of 40 g ... (200 g - 160 g)

volume = mass / density = 40 g / 0.80 = ? cm^3

Answer 2

Yes
