Why is water displacement an effective way of measuring the volume of an irregular solid?

There is no way of finding the volume of an irregular shape.

We cant find the volume of an irregular solid because we can never measure the volume of curves that are present in an irregularly shaped object. so we tend to place this irregular object in a beaker of water so that the volume of water displaced by it will actually show us the volume of object itself. And now we can conclude that water displacement is an effective way of measuring the volume of an irregular solid there is no way of finding the volume of an irregular shape.

answer: - first one is the correct answer. .

explanations: - potassium sulfide is and cobalt(ii) chloride is .

charge on k is +1, charge on s is -2, charge on co is +2 and charge on cl is -1.

in a double replacement reaction the ion exchange takes place. in general the reaction looks like:

if one of the product is insoluble as per solubility rules then a precipitate of it is formed.

when we mix the aqueous solutions of potassium sulfide and cobalt(ii) chloride then chloride ion goes with potassium ion and sulfide ion goes with cobalt ion and the balanced equation is written as:

k and cl has equal charges, similarly co and s has equal charges and hence no subscripts are used for the product side.

as per the solubility rules, cos is insoluble and so it's precipitate is formed.

looking at the given choices, first choice is correct.
