4. 4 Osmium is a very dense metal. What is its density in g/cm 3 if 50.0 g of osmium has a volume of 2.22 cm 3 ? 1) 2.25 g/cm 3 2) 22.5 g/cm 3 3) 111 g/cm 3 Learning Check

5. 5 Given: mass = 50.0 g volume = 22.2 cm 3 Plan: Place the mass and volume of the osmium metal in the density expression. D = mass = 50.0 g volume2.22 cm 3 calculator = 22.522522 g/cm 3 final answer (2) = 22.5 g/cm 3 Solution

6. 6 Volume by Displacement A solid completely submerged in water displaces its own volume of water. The volume of the solid is calculated from the volume difference. 45.0 mL - 35.5 mL = 9.5 mL = 9.5 cm 3 Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

7. 7 Density Using Volume Displacement The density of the zinc object is then calculated from its mass and volume. mass = 68.60 g = 7.2 g/cm 3 volume 9.5 cm 3 Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

8. 8 What is the density (g/cm 3 ) of 48.0 g of a metal if the level of water in a graduated cylinder rises from 25.0 mL to 33.0 mL after the metal is added? 1) 0.17 g/cm 3 2) 6.0 g/cm 3 3) 380 g/cm 3 Learning Check object 33.0 mL 25.0 mL

9. 9 Solution Given: 48.0 g Volume of water = 25.0 mL Volume of water + metal = 33.0 mL Need: Density (g/mL) Plan: Calculate the volume difference. Change to cm 3, and place in density expression. 33.0 mL - 25.0 mL= 8.0 mL 8.0 mL x 1 cm 3 = 8.0 cm 3 1 mL Set up Problem: Density = 48.0 g = 6.0 g = 6.0 g/cm 3 8.0 cm 3 1 cm 3

10. 10 Sink or Float Ice floats in water because the density of ice is less than the density of water. Aluminum sinks because its density is greater than the density of water. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
