Answer:

Density = 1.3386kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Volume = 2.1 millimeters to meters = 2.1/1000 = 0.0021 meters

Mass = 2.811 grams to kilograms = 2.811/1000 = 0.002811 kilograms

To find the density;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;


Density = (mass)/(volume)

Substituting into the equation, we have;


Density = \frac {0.002811}{0.0021}

Density = 1.3386kg/m³
