Answer 3

yes..

Answer 4

which is the initial volume?

Answer 5

50.0 mL of water. 100.0 mL is just the classification of the graduated cylinder

Answer 6

volume of aluminum is mass of aluminum x its density

Answer 7

vol. of alum = 14.815 ml

Answer 8

V final= 50+ 14.815 >?

Answer 9

= 64.815 ml

Answer 10
