Table 1: Displacement Method for Alloy
Weight of the coins (g) 90.08 g
Initial level of water

20.00 cc
Final level of water
(cc)
92.00 cc
Volume of Coins (cc) 12.00 cc
Density of Coins
(g/cc)
7.50 g/cc
Experimental % by
weight of copper
79.89 %
Experimental % by
weight of zinc
20.11 %

(Table 1 shows the result of the volume and density of a coin using displacement
method)
Given a theoretical density of copper which is 8.5 g/cm
3
, 79.89% composition was
obtained.

Relative density of bone 2 g/cc
Density of bone (g/cc) 2
Finding Osteopetrosis

(Table 2 shows the results obtained in measuring the density of the bone and the
relative density using equation 2.4)

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) osteoporosis is defined
on this scale :

Osteoporosis
2.5
Osteopetrosis

1 Normal

Osteopenia


After obtaining 2 g/cc as the density of the bone, it was clear that the bone has
Osteopetrosis because it has a higher than the normal bone density of 1.

2. Conclusion
After performing the experiment, it was evident that the force exerted by the
water on the object submerged in it is equal to the weight of the fluid the
object displaces. Through Archimedes principle the determination of the
density of an object is possible and that its volume cannot be measured
directly. If an object is weighed first in the air and then weighed again in
water, the difference in weights will equal the weight of the volume of the
water displaced, which is the same as the volume of the object.
