Answer:

8.92 g/ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: density = mass/volume and substitute the values:

density = 12.93 ÷ 1.45 = 8.91724... ≈ 8.92 g/ml

The density of the chunk of copper is 8.92 g/ml

Hope this helps!

Answer:


Density = 8.92 \ g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for density is:


Density = (mass)/(volume)

We plug in the given values:


Density = (12.93 \ g)/(1.45 \ mL)


Density = 8.92 \ g/mL
