8. A student filled a graduated cylinder with water and read the meniscus at 25.8 mL. The student then dropped a solid material into the graduated cylinder and the water level rose to 35.9 mL. If
the solid material had a density of 2.99 g/mL, determine the mass of the solid object.

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

From the question

volume = 35.9 ml - 25.8 ml = 10.1 mL

We have

mass = 2.99 × 10.1 = 30.199 g

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."

sorry i was late, but i don't know what assignment your talking about, i'm in flvs as well, im in earth space science. but u are behind pace bc every class should be in the 3's or 4'
