A cube measures 1.0 cm on each side. What is the volume of the cube? If this cube is dropped into 28.0 ML of water, what will be the new volume reading on the graduated cylinder?

Question

The volume of the cube is 1 cm^3. You can find the volume by thinking of the cube as something with an area, which is two of the sides multiplied by each other and then find the volume by multiplying it by the third side. Since all three sides are equal to 1 cm, the overall volume is 1 cm^3. A mL is equal to a cm^3 (called a cubic centimeter). The cube has a volume of 1 mL (or a cm^3) so the new volume after adding the cube would be 29.0 mL of water.

I hope that helps!

Do you by any chance know what 50g of water that is in a beaker. The mass of the beaker i then 115g. What is the mass of the empty beaker?

I don't understand your question.

Well, if one side of the cube measures 1cm, then the volume is 1cm^3 ( a cubic centimeter). Accordinf to the proportion, 1mL = 1cm^3 ; then if you dropped it into a 28.0 mL of water, you'll have a volume of 29.0 mL in the graduated cylinder.
