CHM $155$ Density PreLab

Name:

Density Prelab Problem $(10$ pts$)$:

A sample of an unknown metal is weighed and found to have a mass of $22\mathrm{.}4g.$ Water is added to a $50mL$ graduated cylinder, and the volume is read to be $27\mathrm{.}5mL.$ The $22\mathrm{.}4g$ sample of metal is added to the graduated cylinder, and the final volume of the water and metal is read to be $35\mathrm{.}6mL.$ What is the density of the unknown metal? Look online to find the likely identity of the unknown metal based on its density. Since this is an experiment, the value may not be $100\%$ accurate.
