Answer:

The answer to your question is    Final volume = 58.37 ml

Explanation:

Data

density = 8.96 g/cm³

mass = 75 g

volume of water = 50 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the volume of copper

  Density = mass / volume

Solve for volume

  Volume = mass / density

Substitution

  Volume = 75/8.96

Simplification

  Volume = 8.37cm³    or 8.37 cm³

2.- Calculate the new volume of water in the graduated cylinder

  Final volume = 50 + 8.37

  Final volume = 58.37 ml
