Let's use the formula about density.


\rho=(m)/(V)

Let's use the given magnitudes. The density is 10.5 g/mL but we need to approximate it to the whole number, and the volume is 6.0 mL.


11((g)/(mL))=(m)/(6.0mL)

We have to multiply each side by 6.0 to find the mass.


\begin{gathered} 11((g)/(mL))\cdot6=(m)/(6.0mL)\cdot6 \\ m=66g \end{gathered}

Therefore, the mass is 66 grams.
