Question

I am using a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of my keys . Before I place the keys in , the volume is 35mL. After I place the keys in , the volume is 64 mL. What is the volume of my keys ?

Answer 1

29 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Volume of water inside the graduated cylinder: 35 mL

Volume of the water after placing the keys: 64 mL

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the keys

The rise in the level of the water is due to the volume of the keys. We can find the volume of the keys by subtracting the final volume to the initial volume.

V(keys) = 64 mL - 35 mL = 29 mL
