The volume of empty space inside the tube was measured to be 0.93 in3. If the density of the metal used in constructing the tube is 11.81 g/mL, calculate the length of the tube in inches. 2. Porosity is a measure of the void or empty spaces in a material and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume. The density of the solid material used to create 6 pieces of 0.99 cm diameter and 1.17 cm height cylindrical beads is determined to be 1.84 g/mL. These beads were then placed in a flask and were filled to the 43 mL mark with a salt solution. The total weight measured of the beads and the salt solution was 47.22 g. Upon further inspection, it was found that manufacturing defects caused the measured porosity of the beads to be at 20%. Assuming that the solution was able to fully fill the empty spaces inside the beads, calculate the density of the salt solution. 3. A chocolate…arrow_forward
