Answer:

Density of Copper = 8.96 g/cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mass of copper, m = 89.6 g

Volume of copper, V = 10 cm³

To determine:

The density d of copper

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance is the mass occupied per unit volume. It is expressed as follows:


d = (m)/(V)

In the case copper:


d = (89.6 g)/(10cm^(3) ) = 8.96 g/cm3
