Answer:

The mass of a 10.4 cm³ is, approximately, 117.42 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the cube: 10.4 cm³

Now, let's look up the density of lead:

Density of lead: 11.29 g/cm³.

This value fo density tells us that 1 cm³ of lead has a mass of 11.29g. Hence, we can stablish the following rule of 3 to find the mass of our cube.

1 cm³ ----------------> 11.29 g

10.4 cm³------------> x

x= (10.4 cm³ ⋅ 11.29 g)/1 cm³

x= 117.42 g.

Conclusion.

The mass of a 10.4 cm³ is, approximately, 117.42 g.
