Heptane and water do not mix, and heptane has a lower density (0.684 g/mL) than water (1.00 g/mL). A 100-mL graduated cylinder with an inside diameter of 3.00 cm contains 29.7 g of heptane and 36.4 g of water. What is the combined height of the two liquid layers in the cylinder in cm? The volume of a cylinder is π r2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
