Density is defined as mass/volume. The mass of the sample is 37.51 g. The volume of the sample is that volume of water that is displaced, i.e. 57.5 - 50.0 ml = 7.5 ml. Density = 37.51 g/7.5 ml = 5.0 g/ml. This is reported to 2 sig figs based on the subtracted value of 5.0
The new alter level in the cylinder with doing all the calculations would be 80.3 ml this is the information that is provided.
Volume of the object = 75.0 - 50.0 = 25.0 ml
So density = mass/volume = 67.5g / 25.0 ml = 2.7 g per ml
If you know the density of the liquid, you could just weigh the material.
A gram is a measure of mass, not of weight. The density of the liquid is 0.8 grams per mL.
the use of graduated cylinder is for measuring liquid objects
It's a tube used to measure exact amounts of liquid, usually for science.
That method only works if the substance being measured is in liquid form. Also, the only property of the substance that can be measured is its volume ... the graduated cylinder cannot measure its mass, temperature, cost, density, etc.
The difference between the weights (grams) of the empty cylinder, and with the liquid gives you the weight of the liquid. Divide that by 30 to get the density of the liquid in g/ml
Density of an object is defined as mass per unit volume. Density - mass/volume (m/v) To find the density of a liquid using a graduated cylinder, you first of all take a measurement of the mass of the empty graduated cylinder (m1) and write it down. Lets say the mass is 0.5 kg (500 grams) Then fill the cylinder with the liquid that you want to find the density for and note down the volume (v). For easier calculation take 1 liter of the liquid. Now take a measurement of the mass of the cylinder with the liquid (m2) in it and write it down. Subtract the mass of the empty cylinder from the mass of the cylinder and liquid combined to get the mass of the liquid (m = m2 - m1). Now divide the result z by the volume (v) of the liquid. density = m/v

If you are going to weigh a liquid in a graduated cylinder, the weight that you will get when you place the cylinder on the scale will be the combined weight of the cylinder and its contents. To find the weight of the contents alone, you therefore have to subtract the weight of the empty cylinder. And to calculate density you need to know both the weight and the volume.

A graduated cylinder is used to find the VOLUME of a liquid.
You can, but the volume will not be as accurate as using a graduated cylinder, and will probably give you an inaccurate density.
measured with a graduated cylinder
Problem: You are given two unknown liquids. Find the density of each. Materials: 100ml graduated cylinder, triple beam balance, calculator, 2 unknown liquids. Procedure: 1) Find the mass of the empty graduated cylinder. 2) Pour unknown liquid #1 into the graduated cylinder to the 50 ml. level. 3) Find the mass of the graduated cylinder with 50ml of unknown liquid #1. 4) Repeat steps 1-3 for unknown liquid #2. We can calculate density of a liquid using the formula: Density= Mass/Volume where mass is that for just the liquid (you must subtract out the mass of the graduated cylinder). Now let's calculate the densities of the two liquids using the following given data. Liquid #1: Given: Mass of empty graduated cylinder = 78 grams Mass of graduated cylinder with unknown liquid #1= 128 grams. Find: a) Mass of just the liquid = ____ b) Volume of liquid=_____ c) Density of liquid #1 =____ Liquid #2: Given: Mass of empty graduated cylinder = 78 grams Mass of graduated cylinder with unknown liquid #2= 117.5 grams. Find: a) Mass of just the liquid = ____ b) Volume of liquid =_____ c) Density of liquid #2=____ Check your answers by inserting the value in the box below.
