Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

To calculate density of a substance, we use the equation:


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


D=(M)/(V)

We are given:

Density of liquid = D

Mass of copper= 89.6 g

Volume of copper =
10.0 cm^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:


D=(89.6 g)/(10.0 cm^3)=8.96 g/cm^3


8.96 g/cm^3 is the density of copper.
