Answer:

Density of the unknown substance,
\rho=19.3\ g/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the unknown substance, m = 38.6 g

Volume of the unknown substance,
V=2\ cm^3

We need to find the density of the unknown substance. The total mass per unit volume of a substance is called its density. Its formula is given by :


d=(m)/(V)


d=(38.6\ g)/(2\ cm^3)


d=19.3\ g/cm^3

So, the density of the unknown substance is
19.3\ g/cm^3. Hence, this is the required solution.
