Question

By determining the volume by displacement, why is it importantthat there are no bubbles adhering to the solid? How wouldthese bubbles affect the calculated density and be specific. Nettie's answer: Any type of contaminate or residuleelement in this case bubbles, would make the volume displacementinaccurate due to the air bubble (gas) having its own density,which would result in your measurements being in accurate. Ithink the bubbles would affect the calculated density by addingmore weight to the mass and density too. Is this correct? Thank you for your response, and pleasehave a nice weekend.
