Answer

### The volume of the object is 10 mL.

Explain

## Step1: Determine Initial Water Level<br />### The initial water level is given as 20 mL.<br />## Step2: Determine Final Water Level<br />### The water level after placing the object is given as 30 mL.<br />## Step3: Calculate Volume Displacement<br />### The volume of the object is equal to the volume of water displaced, which is the difference between the final and initial water levels. <br />### \[\text{Volume of the object} = \text{Final water level} - \text{Initial water level} = 30 \, \text{mL} - 20 \, \text{mL} = 10 \, \text{mL}\]
