Answer:

2.57 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula


density = (mass)/(volume)\\

From the question we have

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 22.76 mL - 15.35 ml = 7.41 mL


density = (19.060)/(7.41) \\ = 2.572199

We have the final answer as

2.57 g/mL

Hope this helps you
