Answer: The density of the unknown metal is 7.86 g/ml.
Explanation:
Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.
[tex]Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}[/tex]
Given : Mass of metal = 25.32 g
Volume of metal = volume of water displaced = (28.22 - 25.00) ml = 3.22 ml
Putting in the values we get:
[tex]density=\frac{25.32g}{3.22ml}[/tex]
[tex]Density=7.86g/ml[/tex]
Thus the density of the unknown metal is 7.86 g/ml
