Question 37
Easy

A student wants to measure the volume of a piece of cork. The cork has a similar shape to a steel bolt.

The density of the cork is 0.24 g/cm3.

The density of water is 1.00 g/cm3.

Explain why a standard water displacement method (using a eureka can filled with water) cannot be used directly to measure the volume of this piece of cork.
