Density — practice question

Three samples of different liquids each have the same mass. Their volumes are $190\,\text{cm}^3$, $200\,\text{cm}^3$ and $235\,\text{cm}^3$. All three liquids are poured into a large measuring cylinder, where they settle into three distinct layers since they do not mix. What readings will be shown on the measuring cylinder at the two interfaces between the samples?

  • A$190\,\text{cm}^3$ and $390\,\text{cm}^3$
  • B$190\,\text{cm}^3$ and $425\,\text{cm}^3$
  • C$235\,\text{cm}^3$ and $425\,\text{cm}^3$
  • D$235\,\text{cm}^3$ and $435\,\text{cm}^3$
