Gold density = 19.30,
Silver density = 10.49,
Lead density = 11.34.

They have the same mass but are made of different metals. Each one is lowered into a beaker of water. Use the data above to decide which one will cause the biggest rise in water level.

A) Gold
B) Silver
C) Lead
D) All will cause the same rise in water level​

Respuesta :

  • Density of gold=19.30g/cm^^3
  • Density of silver=10.49g/cm^3
  • Density of lead=11.34g/cm^3

Density of water=1g/cm^3

Now all metals has greater mass in comparison to water.

  • Higher the mass higher the rise

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Density\propto Mass[/tex]

  • Higher the density higher the mass

Gold has higher mass hence it will cause the biggest rise.

Option A

Silver will cause biggest rise in water

What is density ?

Density of an object is a measure of its mass per unit volume.

density = mass / volume

since all have same mass , so metal which have higher volume will cause the biggest rise in water level .

since , density is inversely proportional to volume , hence material having low density will have higher volume

hence , silver will cause biggest rise in water

correct option B) Silver
