The bottom liquid is a relatively heavy lubricating oil and


A rectangular block of solid carbon floats at the interface of two immisicble liquids. The bottom liquid is a relatively heavy lubricating oil, and the top liquid is water. Of the total block volume, 54.2% is immersed in the oil and the balance is in the water. In a separate experiment, an empty flask is weighed, 35.3 cm cubed of the lubricating oil is poured into the flask, and the flask is reweighed. If the scale reading was 124.8 grams in the first weighing, what would it be in the second weighing? (suggestion: recall Archimedes' principle, and do a force balance on the block)
