LaKeisha is measuring the density of a solid piece of metal using the graduated cylinder method. She initially measures a volume of water in the cylinder to be 3.28 mL. After placing the metal into the graduated cylinder, the new volume was 8.72 mL. The mass of the metal was 42.26 g on a top loading balance. Required:
What is the density of the metal calculated to the correct number of significant figures?

7.77 g/ml

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder with only water = 3.28 mL

Volume of cylinder with water and metal = 8.72 mL

Volume of metal = (Volume of cylinder with water and metal ) -(Volume of cylinder with only water)

=8.72-3.28

=5.44 ml

Mass of metal = 42.26 g

Formula of Density =  

i.e. the density of the metal =

Hence, the density of metal = 7.77 g/ml

african americans demonstrated their newly found freedom by relocating often in search of relatives whom they had been separated from during slavery. others established schools to educate freed people and they built institutions such as churches and political organizations to advocate for their rights.

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.
