Answer to Problem 124A
The density of the sample is
Explanation of Solution
Given,
Mass of the sample is = 19.21 g
Volume of water + sample is = 43.1 mL
Volume of the water alone is = 39.0 mL
So, the volume of water displaced = 43.1 mL - 39.0 mL = 4.1 mL
Therefore, the density of the sample,
The percent error if the accepted value of this sample is 7.01 g/mL can be calculated using the value,
From the given data, we have calculated thedensity of the sample to be 4.685 g/mL and the percentage error is 49.78 %.
