mass / volume = density
74.6g/27.6mL = 2.70 g/mL

Answer:

\rho =2.70g/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Since density is defined as the degree of compactness of an object, it is mathematically defined via:


\rho =(m)/(V)

Thus, for the given mass and volume, one computes the density of aluminium as follows:


\rho =(74.6g)/(27.6cm^3) \\\rho =2.70g/cm^3

Best regards.
