The correct answer is Platinum. You subtract 10 from 15 because
V final - V initial.
15-10=5.
Now use the Density formula 107/5=21.4
According to the chart 21.4 g/cm^3 is Platinum

How would you find the density of 10 grams of granular sodium chloride?
To find the density of a substance you need the mass as well as the volume. The mass is 10 grams so all you need to do is find the volume. It is easiest to do this using displacement of water in a graduated cylinder. I would take a 100 mL graduated cylinder and fill it up with water to.. lets say.. 50 mL. Furthermore, very slowly add the granular salt to the graduated cylinder using a funnel, being sure not to spill any. Now read how much is in the graduated cylinder. Second value - first value = volume of salt. Divide 10 grams by the volume. Answer would be in ___grams/mL^3
Why not fill a graduated cylinder to the top?
It is due to surface tension. Which is the "fight" between the forces of the solid (graduated cylinder) and the surrounding gas (air). On the liquid in the cylinder. This fight can be positive, negative or zero. Water on glass, is negative. As in the water level is higher along the edges than it is in the center. Whereas mercury on glass is positive. The center is the highest point. A zero example is rare as in silver and water.
How do you read a graduated cylinder while using the meniscus?
The most accurate way to read a graduated cylinder is to place it on a flat surface. Bend down so you are eye level with the Meniscus Line, the line that is formed by the border between the unfilled portion of the cylinder and the top of the liquid. The very lowest part of this line is where you read the measurement. The markings are in whole numbers, 1, 2, 3, etc., with 10 lines between each number.
How do you use water to determine density?
You use water displacement and plug the numbers into the density equation. Below is a step by step guide on how to use it. 1. Get a graduated cylinder, or anything that you can measure water in. 2. Fill the graduated cylinder with water. 3. Record the volume 4. Place the object you want to find the density of in the water. 5. Subtract the value you got in #3 from #4. This number represents the volume of the object you want to find the density of. 6. Take the object you want to find the density of, and weigh it. 7. Then take the 2 numbers you got and plug them into the formula d=m/v D=density, m=mass (weight in grams), v=volume NOTE: The ONLY liquid you can use for water displacement is WATER!
Does liquid water rise higher in a narrow tube or a wide tube?
Rise or fall of liquid in a small passage or tube. When a glass tube of small internal diameter is inserted into water, the surface water molecules are attracted to the glass and the water level in the tube rises. The narrower the tube, the higher the water rises. The water is said to "wet" the tube. Water will also be drawn into the fibres of a towel, even if the towel is in a horizontal position. Conversely, if a glass tube is inserted into mercury, the level of the liquid in the tube falls. The mercury does not wet the tube. Capillarity is caused by the difference in attraction of the liquid molecules to each other and the attraction of the liquid molecules to those of the tube.
What is an easy rock experiment?
Fill a graduated cylinder full of water, than drop a rock inside. The amount that the water rises will determine the volume of the rock. Amount of water level increase=volume of rock.
How do you measure a solid using a graduated cylinder?
Fill the graduated cylinder with water, and measure the volume. Now put the item in, measure the water's volume again, and take the difference
How do I find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
To determine the volume of an irregular object using graduated cylinders, you fill a graduated cylinder with water right to the top, then submerge the object in the water. Measure the water that overflows using a second graduated cylinder, and read the water level in it in cc's or cubic inches. That is the object's volume.
How can you find the volume of a small rock using only water and either a measuring cup or a graduated cylinder?
Fill the cylinder with water to a marked point. Then place the rock in the water and measure how much the water level rises. That will give you the amount of volume displaced by the rock and so the volume of the rock.
How would i measure the volume of a sponge?
You could first soak the sponge in water, then use the standard method of measuring irregular objects: fill a graduated cylinder with 100 mL of water, then drop in the wet sponge and see how much the water level rises.
How can you accurately find the volume of a can of Coke?
Put it in a graduated cylinder. a) Find a graduated cylinder big enough to hold a can of Coke. b) Make sure it has a small scale. (Smaller scales are more accurate.) c) Fill the graduated cylinder with water to a mark on the cylinder. d) Find how much higher the water is when you drop the can in.
How can you calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.
On a hot day a student observes water drops on the outside of a bottle of cold water. Explain this observation in terms of the concept of thermal energy.?
Use the water displacement method. You need a graduated cylinder and some water. Fill the graduated cylinder with enough water so that when you place the rock in the graduated cylinder it will cover the rock. Read the meniscus (the slightly curved line of the water) at eye level. Record your measurement of the water in the graduated cylinder (in mL). Place the rock in the graduated cylinder and record your new measurement of the water line, again at eye level. Subtract the original measurement from the new one to get the volume of the rock.
What tool would you use to find the volume of an expo marker?
The best way to find a volume of anything(that doesn't dissolve or get damage by water) is by simply filling a graduated cylinder with water(amount doesnt matter)then dipping the object in water and calculating the difference. (FOR EXAMPLE: I can fill a graduated cylinder up to 100 ml. Then i will dip the expo marker in it. And let's say for example that it rises by 50 ml. Then the volume is 50 milliliters.)
What is an easy way to measure the volume of am oddly shaped solid object?
Submerge it in water and measure how much the water rises.
How you find out the volume of a solid rock using only water and graduated cylinder?
things needed: graduate cylinder, water, and the rock 1) fill the graduated cylinder to the top with water 2) next, take the rock and slowly emerge it into the water ( water will spill over the top of the glass so do so in a sink or outside on the cement ) 3) last, the amount of water left in the cylinder is the volume of your rock
How do you FIND the voulme of a penny?
You can run a water displacement test. Where you fill a graduated cylinder with a certain amount of water. Then, drop the penny in and see the difference. And that would be your volume.
