Determining density of solid metal


Assignment:

A piece of solid metal weighing 322 grams is placed into a graduated cylinder, which is then filled with liquid mercury. The metal does not float. After weighing the cylinder and its contents the solid metal is removed and the cylinder is then filled with more liquid mercury to the same level as before. Now the cylinder and its contents weigh 110 grams LESS than before. If the density of mercury is 13.6 grams per cubic centimeter, determine the density of the solid metal.

Provide complete and step by step solution for the question, use formulas.
