Based on this zoomed-in view of the second graduated cylinder, I can see the water level after the bottle cap has been submerged. The markings are the same as in the first cylinder: major lines at 5, 10, 15, and 20 mL, with each small division representing 1 mL. The water level is exactly on the line marked "20". Therefore, the final volume (Vf) is 20 mL.
Now that I have both the initial and final volumes, I can calculate the volume of the bottle cap using the formula provided in the image: V = Vf - Vi.
- Initial Volume (Vi) = 15 mL
- Final Volume (Vf) = 20 mL
The calculation is as follows:
V = 20 mL - 15 mL
V = 5 mL
Therefore, the volume of the bottle cap is 5 mL.
To complete the task as shown in the image, I will fill in the blanks:
- V = 20 - 15
- V = 5
