When a 0.255 lb metal was dropped into 25.0 ml of water the level of the water rose to 27.6 ml what is the density of the metal?

A small object is able to remain suspended when dropped into a container of water. What does this tell you about the object's density in relation to the density of water?
It means that the object has an equal density to the water.
What are some things that can happen if you drop a piece of metal into a graduated cylinder partially filled with water?
It could sink. (The metal's density is greater than water.) It could turn into a ball of flames. (If you dropped a chunk of sodium into graduated cylinder, it would react with flames or sparks.)
What is the name of the metal which produces fire when dropped in water?
Lithium and sodium are the metals which produces fire in water.
A piece of metal weighs 13.21g When inserted into a cylinder containing exactly 50.00mL of water the metal and water occupy a volume of 54.89 mL what is the metal?
Well, the density of the metal is 2.701 g/mL, which I hope is what you're actually asking for. There's not enough information to determine what element the metal is, however.
Does water have greater density than oil?
No, water has more density than oil. If something denser than water(Eg=Iron) is dropped to water, it sinks, while less denser will float. Oil floats on water. Really I've tested it
What will happen to a solid object made from matter with a greater density than water is dropped into water.?
It depends on the shape of the object. Otherwise you could not make metal ships.
How do you calculate the density of metal ball?
weight the metal ball first. then fill a graduated cylinder with water- it doesnt really matter how much, and put the metal ball in the water. measure how much the water level has increased by in mL. take the mass, and divide by the mL of water and then you get the density. ++ If it's an accurate sphere you can also measure its diameter and so calculate the volume, from which and the mass you can calculate the density.

A 15 gram solid object is dropped into agraduated cylinder containin 35 ml of water the water level rises to 45 ml mark what is the density of the solid?
the object volume is equal to the water displaced, or 10ml. Density is 15/10 = 1.5g/ml
What will happen to a solid object with a greater density than water when it is dropped into water?
It will sink.
Graduated cylinder contains 23.5 milliliters and 38.8 grams of silver metal with a density of 10.5 grams per milliliter is added in the water what is the water level?
A little hard when you didn't give us the original water level...
How do you find density of an object dropped in water?
You measure how many mL the water went up.
How do you know the density of an object if it floats on water?
You do not. A metal ship, with density well above that of water, will float.

Why do lighter objects float higher in water?
It's because of the density of the object; for example wood floats in water because its density is less then the density of water, and metal sinks because its density is more then the density of the water.
Why metal sinks in water?
because their density is heavier than water
What will happen to a solid object made from matter with a greater density than water when it is dropped in water?
It will sink.
