Answer: A.
1.4\ g/cm^3

Explanation:

Given : A sugar cube has a mass of 11.2 g.

Each side is 2 cm long.

We know that the volume of the cube is given by :-


V=\text{Side}^3

Then, the volume of sugar cube =
2^3=8\ cm^3

Using formula:


\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}

We have


\text{Density}=(11.2)/(8)=1.4\ g/cm^3

Hence, the density of the sugar cube =
1.4\ g/cm^3
