A student measures the volume of a small irregularly- shaped stone. Which apparatus must be used? a. a measuring cylinder containing water and a ruler only. b. a measuring cylinder containing water only. c. an empty measuring cylinder and a ruler only. d. a ruler only.​

a measuring cylinder containing water only.

Explanation:

If we want to measure the volume of an irregular object. We need a properly calibrated measuring cylinder filled with water of known volume.

The irregular object is now inserted into the measuring cylinder containing water and the change in the volume of water is noted. The volume of the irregular object is now obtained as;

New volume of water - initial volume of water.

Hence, only a measuring cylinder filled with water is required to measure the volume of a small irregularly- shaped stone.

the density(ratio between mass and volume as m/v) decreases from top to bottom in periodic table group as the size increases and nuclear charge decreases. but in periods density increases from left to right as atom size decreases and nuclear charge increases.
