If you have a 100.0-mL graduated cylinder containing 50.0 mL of water. You carefully place a 129-g piece of brass of density 8.56 gmL into the water. What is the final volume reading in the cylinder?

The water will rise by the volume of the brass:
volume = mass/density = 129g / 8.56 g/ml ≈ 15.1 ml
→ final reading ≈ 50.0 ml + 15.1 ml = 65.1 ml

How do you calculate mass and volume to get density?
You MEASURE mass with a balance. You MEASURE volume (if liquid) with a graduated cylinder. Then take these and divide. density = mass divided by volume.
Can you use a graduated cylinder to measure mass?
Yes, provided you know the density of the substance and the substance can be adequately measured by the cylinder. Because density is the quotient of the mass and volume, the mass is the product of the density and volume. So if you multiply the density and volume (assuming the units match), you will find the mass.
How do you find the volume of an irregular shape in a graduated cylinder?
Find the density and mass of the object d=m/v and plug in your numbers and solve for volume
What is the mass of iron shot of density 7.92 g per ml which when added to a graduated cylinder containing 39.99 ml of water rises to 48.39 ml?
Volume of iron shot added = 48.39 ml - 39.99 ml = 8.40 ml mass = density × volume = 7.92 g/ml × 8.40 ml = 66.528 g ≈ 66.5 g
A piece of metal with a mass of 163 g is placed in a 50 mL graduated cylinder The water level rises from 20 mL to 36 mL What is the density of the metal?
The volume of the piece of metal is measured by the difference in the volume of water in the graduated cylinder before and after the piece of metal is placed in the cylinder. This is stated to be 36 - 20 = 16 mL. Density is defined to be mass per unit volume. Therefore, for this piece of metal the density is 163/16 = 10 g/mL. (Only two significant digits are justified, because the is the number of significant digits in the limiting datum 16.)
What is needed to calculate the density of a graduated cylinder?
Mass and volume are needed to calculate the density of a graduated cylinder.
How do you measure the mass of a solid with a graduated cylinder without the density?
You cannot measure the mass of a solid with a graduated cylinder.
How do you get the density of an irregular shape?
use a graduated cylinder
Calculate the density of water using a graduated cylinder?
not quite. you can measure volume in a graduated cylinder. you can use a scale, water, and a graduated cylinder to find out the density of an object by filling the graduated cylinder to an easily calculated point (250) then dropping your object in the water making sure none splashes out then measure the difference, then weigh it and divide the mass by volume to get density.
What type of density is a graduated cylinder?
The question seems absurd has no meaning. measuring cylinder is a device to measure the volume. if you want to find density of a cube, you an find volume displaced and knowing mass can find the density - Archimedean principle it is beyond the scope of this page to answer fully
A graduated cylinder is used to measure?
density -------- Graduated cyllinders are used to measure volumes of liquids, powders or fine granules.
A student has 25 cubic centimeters of three liquids: blue water (density 1 g/cm3), olive oil (density 0.85 g/cm3)and corn syrup (density 1.4 g/cm3)She carefully pours them into a single graduated cylinder. Please predict what will happen?
50 density
A 34.5-g gold is dropped into a graduated cylinder containing water by how many milliliters does the measured volume increase?
34.5/19.3=1.79mL (19.3 is the density of gold)
If you poured liquids in to a graduated cylinder the liquids will form layers based upon?
Density.
If you have a 100.0mL graduated cylinder containing 50.0mL of water. you carefully place a 136-g piece of brass (density 8.58gmL) into the water. What is the final volume reading in the graduated cyli?
136 g x 1 ml/8.58 g = 15.85 ml = volume of the piece of brass.According to Archimedes, this will displace an equal volume of water. Thus, the final volume in the cylinder will be 50.0 ml + 15.85 ml = 65.85 ml = 65.9 ml (to 3 sig. figs.)
When finding the density of a liquid why must you first find the mass of a graduated cylinder alone?
If you are going to weigh a liquid in a graduated cylinder, the weight that you will get when you place the cylinder on the scale will be the combined weight of the cylinder and its contents. To find the weight of the contents alone, you therefore have to subtract the weight of the empty cylinder. And to calculate density you need to know both the weight and the volume.
