When a piece of metal mass of 54.52 g is dropped into a graduated cylinder containing 23.44 mL of water, the water level rises to 28.85 mL. What is the density of the metal? Answer in units of g/cm3

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

From the question

mass of metal = 54.52 g

Volume of metal = new volume - original volume of water in the cylinder

That's

new volume = 28.85 mL

original volume of water = 23.44 mL

Volume of metal

= 28.85 - 23.44 = 5.41 mL

Next we convert the volume from mL to cm³

1 mL = 1 cm³

5.41 mL = 5.41 cm³

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

n+h→nh3

we must remember that nitrogen and hydrogen are both diatomic molecules in their standard gas form. this adjusts the equation to

n2+h2→nh3

now we need to adjust coefficients in order to balance the atoms on each side of the equation. currently we have 2 atoms of nitrogen and 2 atoms of hydrogen on the reactant side and 1 atom of nitrogen and 3 atoms of hydrogen on the product side.

we can balance the hydrogens by placing a coefficient of 2 in front of ammonia and a coefficient of 3 in front of the hydrogen.

n2+3h2→2nh3

this gives us 6 hydrogen on each side and coincidentally the nitrogens now equal 2 on each side.
