Chapter 1, Problem 78QAP
A student determines the density of a metal by taking two cylinders of equal mass and volume. Cylinder A is filled with mercury and the metal. The mercury and metal together have a mass of 92.60 g. Cylinder B is filled only with mercury. The mass of the mercury in cylinder B is 52.6 g more than the mass of mercury and metal in cylinder A. What is the density of the metal? The density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3.
