The formula for calculating density is D=m/V. Density equals mass divided by volume. Calculate the volume of the cans, and then find the mass. Then find the mass of the coke and water in the cans. Subtract the mass of the cans so you're left with the masses of the coke and water. Put the masses and volumes into the formula.

How does the density of a crushed metal can compare to the density of the metal can before it was crushed?

The crushed can will have a density that is quite a bit higher than the density of the can before it was crushed. Imagine a box of empty aluminum beverage cans. It won't weigh much. If those same cans are crushed, they will weigh the same, but take up a lot less space. The density of the cans can be increased by crushing them. The cans might be said to have a low bulk density before being crushed.

How many 12oz cans to make a ton?

The 12oz in 12oz can refers to fluid ounces, i.e. volume. Ton refers to weight. The two units are not directly convertible. However, if you assume that the cans contain pure water, with a density of 1 gm/ml, and you ignore the mass of the cans, then you could say that each can weighs 355 grams. A ton is 909,091 grams, so there are 2,561 cans in a ton, again, only considering the volume of pure water. A proper computation would require knowledge of the density of the fluid, as well as the mass of the empty can.


Will aluminum steel cans sink or float in distill water?

Both aluminum and steel have densities higher than that of water and ordinarily would sink; if the can was empty and thus (like a boat) able to displace more mass in water (by virtue of its volume) than its own weight, it could then float. However, if it was filled with water, its overall density considering both the metal and the container's content, would be higher than water, and it would sink. The fact that the water was distilled would only marginally affect buoyancy; distilled water is about 2-5% less dense than salt water.

Can another soda cans weigh more then a different brand?

yes. test it in water. soda has a higher density than water. my science class did it. diet coke floats and regular coke sinks. (: it's pretty fascinating.

Why do cans rust over time?

because cans are made out metal. metal has a chemical reaction to oxygen. [water has oxygen in it so thats why water rusts when with water] the property of chemical property this is is called reactivity.
