Chapter 1, Problem 1.116MP
A calibrated flask was filled to the 25.00 mL mark withethyl alcohol. By weighing the flask before and after adding the alcohol, it was determined that the flask contained 19.7325 g of alcohol. In a second experiment, 25.0920 g of metal beads were added to the flask, and the flask was again filled to the 25.00 mL mark with ethyl alcohol. The total mass of the metal plus alcohol in the flask was determined to be 38.4704 g. What is the density of the metal in g/mL?

To identify a metal, an experimenter placed, 4850cg sample in a graduated cylinder. He then poured 35.75 mL of water, covering the metal and bringing the liquid level in the cylinder to 42.5 mL. What is the density of the metal in kg/m3?
You are asked by the King of Allegesia to determine if the crown he was given for his birthday is pure gold. The density of pure gold is 19.32 g/mL; the density of water is 0.998 g/mL at 20ºC. There is a container when filled to the mark contains 1900.0 mL. When the container is filled with water to the mark, it has a mass of 2499.5 g. The crown is placed in the container and filled to the mark with water and now weighs 15,113.3 g. The crown has a mass of 13,910.0 g. What is the density of the crown? Is the crown pure gold?
