(a)
Interpretation:
To determine density of wood.
Concept introduction:
Archimedes’ principle states that a body which is at rest and placed in a fluid in such a manner that when it is submerged completely or partially then a buoyant force will act in the upward direction whose magnitude will be equal to the weight of displaced fluid.
As surrounding fluid is of uniform density so, the weight of displaced fluid is equal to the volume of the displaced fluid. It concludes that the mass of displaced fluid is equal to mass of object immersed in the fluid. The object immersed in fluid in this case is the cylinder. So, mass of displaced fluid is equal to mass of the cylinder.
(b)
Interpretation:
To determine the liquid density.

It concludes that the mass of displaced fluid is equal to mass of object immersed in the fluid. The object immersed in fluid in this case is the cylinder.

(c)
Interpretation:
To explain why knowing length and width of the wooden object is unnecessary

- Please solve this problem in the same exact format as the picture below (dimensional analysis format) the correct way and with the correct answer. Question: What is the molar mass for: Uranium hexafluoride (UF6).arrow_forwardIn our chemistry laboratory class, the formula for surface tension given is y=mg/2(pi) x r x f where y=surface tension, m= mass of the drop, g= gravitational acceleration, pi is 3.1415, r= outer radius of burette, f=correction factor. Now I searched the internet and it says that the unit for surface tension is kg x m/s^2. The problem is I have grams for the mass of the drop and that the outer radius of the burette is in centimeter while the gravitational acceleration is in meter. What will happen is like this: (1 g x 9.8 m/s^2) / 2 (3.1415) x 0.15 cm x 0.74643 (correction factor no unit) As you can see, if I don't cancel m and cm, the unit will be g x cm x m x s^2. However if change the radius of the burette into meter, it will cancel, the unit will be g x s^2 (missing meter). What can I do to get kg x m/s^2 as the unit for final answer?arrow_forwardCan you please help me with 5arrow_forward
- A student calibrated a eudiometer by first recording the mass of the empty eudiometer followed by filling the eudiometer to the 50.00 mL line with deionized water at 22°C and recorded the mass.

- A glass vessel weighed 20.2376 g when empty and 20.3102 g when filled to an etched mark with water at 4 °C. The same was dried and filled to the same mark with a solution at 4 °C. The vessel was then found to weigh 20.3300 g. What is the density of the solution?arrow_forwardAt 36.0 °C the density of water is 0.9936870 g/cm3.At 37.0 °C the density of water is 0.9933390 g/cm3.Use linear interpolation to calculate the density (D) of water at 36.2 °C, to the nearest 10-7g/cm3.
