A student calibrated a 10-mL graduated cylinder using water. The empty graduated cylinder weighed 24.378 grams. When it was filled with 9.89 mL of deionized water, it weighed 33.826 grams. The temperature of the water was 21.8oC.
What is the density of water, based on these measurements?
A graduated cylinder (measuring cylinder) contains 27 mL of water at 25 °C and the
mass of the water is 26.92 g. A sphere of iron with a diameter of 18.0 mm is added to
the water in the graduated cylinder. The total mass of the water and the iron is 50.92 g.
(The volume of a sphere is given by the expression: V = (4/3)ar³).
(i) Calculate the total volume of the water and the iron in the graduated cylinder.
(ii) Determine the density of iron at 25 °C? Show your calculations.
(iii) Without doing any calculations, what do you think the density of 48.00 g of iron is
at the same temperature? Explain your answer.
The lowest temperature recorded in a particular city during the past year was −10.73−10.73 ∘∘C. What was the temperature on the kelvin scale?
