Answer:
To determine the density of the metal, you can use the measurements obtained from the analytical balance and the graduated cylinder.
First, you measured the mass of the metal on the analytical balance and obtained a reading of 74.122g. This measurement gives you the mass of the metal.
Next, you placed the metal in water in the graduated cylinder. The water level in the cylinder rose from 28.2 mL to 28.7 mL.
To calculate the volume of the metal, you need to find the difference between the initial and final water levels in the graduated cylinder. In this case, the difference is 28.7 mL - 28.2 mL = 0.5 mL.
Now that you have the mass and volume of the metal, you can calculate its density. Density is defined as mass divided by volume.
Density = Mass/Volume
Density = 74.122g / 0.5mL
To obtain the density in a more commonly used unit, you need to convert mL to cm³. Since 1 mL is equal to 1 cm³, the volume of the metal is also 0.5 cm³.
Density = 74.122g / 0.5cm³
Calculating this gives you the density of the metal.
