silver 10.5
cassie has a piece of metal and wants to identify which substance it is. fill in the blanks to complete the sentences. not all words will be used.
cassie starts by using a to find that the metals is 56.5 grams. next, she submerges the metal in to measure its and finds that it is 5 cubic centimeters. she her first measurement by her second measurement to find that the metals density matches that

Explanation:

Step1: Identify tool for mass measurement

To find the mass of the metal which is 56.5 grams, a scale is used.

Step2: Identify medium for volume - measurement

To measure the volume of the metal, it is submerged in water. The volume is found to be 5 cubic - centimeters.

Step3: Identify operation to find density

Density is calculated by dividing mass by volume. She divides her first measurement (mass) by her second measurement (volume).

Answer:

scale; mass; water; volume; divides
