Will air bubbles affect the volume when measuring the volume of a metal.?

Air bubbles would make the volume you read in the measuring cylinder increase from the actual volume of theliquid. so when you add in the metal, there would be an increase in the volume of the metal than it really is. the mass of the metal cannot be affected by air bubble because this is the amount of matter in the metal. This increase in volume causes the density of the metal to reduce from its original value. since mass is constant, density is inversely proportional to volume. As volume increases, density decreases.
hope that was helpful.

What is the difference between porous metals and metal foams?
When you intended to make a metal full of bubbles it is called 'foam'. When you wanted a solid metal and got bubbles in it, it is called 'porous'. So 'foam' is a good thing, 'porous' is a bad thing.
How could you identify a pure metal if you a balance a graduated cylinder and a table of densities for metals?
Mass divided by volume, same as it is for anything else. The density of metals ranges from around 500 kg/cubic meter up to around 22000 kg/cubic meter, so if you were hoping for a value ... somewhere in that range, which is a pretty wide range, depending on which specific metal you're talking about.
What happen when few drops of sulphuric acid is poured on zinc metal?
it bubbles up
How do you determine the mass of a magnesium metal strip without using a scale?
By a measurement of the mass and volume because: Mass=Volume/Density.
What happens to a metal when exposed to acidic mixture?
The acid deprotonates in aqueous solution, and the negative ions induce nucleophilic attack on the positively-charged metal ions, removing metal ions from the metal and combining with them to form a salt. The protons that dissociated into solution quite often recombine with each other to form diatomic hydrogen, which bubbles out of the solution as a gas. This process of removing metal ions from the metal itself to be recombined into a salt with the original acid is called corrosion. So, in a nutshell, the acid breaks down into ions, eats away bits of metal atoms from the original metal mass, combines into salt with the acid, and the hydrogen from the acid recombines to hydrogen gas, which bubbles out of the solution.
A piece of metal was gently lowered into a measuring cylinder containing water.The level of water was at 20 cubic metre mark, what is the volume of metal?
20cm3
How does an air bubble inside a metal ball affect density?
It will increase the total volume, but it will hardly affect total mass. Remember the definition of density as mass / volume.
Which tools measure length volume and mass and their units?
-- Length is measured by rulers; they are often wood. -- Volume is measured by measuring cups; they are usually glass. -- Mass is most often measured by a laboratory balance; they are metal.
How could you determine the volume of a metal stapler?
all you would need is a basin with a known amount of water. put the stapler in the basin and measure the amount of water in the basin. subtract that answer by the original amount. theres the volume of your stapler.(this works for anything)
Will the volume of metal decrease if it is heated?
No, the volume of a metal increases as it is heated. It expands.
What is one way you measure flavoring?
You can use plastic or metal measuring utensils for measuring flavoring.

What metal has a mass of 35.4 and a volume of 3.11?
A sample of an unknown metal has a mass of 35.4g and a volume of 3.11cm^3. The metal is Lead.

What is zyglo test?
It is a method of measuring metal fatigue
When a metal carbonate reacts with an acid carbon dioxide is always produced what factors might affect the volume of gas produced?
The mass of the carbonate used.
How does the density of the metal in the crushed can compare with the metal's density before the can was crushed?
It depends on what you're measuring: the density of the aluminum or the aluminum and the space inside the can. If it's the density of the aluminum only, it doesn't change much. If it's the density of the aluminum and the space inside the can, the density greatly decreases as you are getting rid of the air, and therefore the volume, inside. This also depends on if you are using your foot or a garbage compacter.
