Which of the metals was selected?

Answer 1

`\large \boxed{\text{Metal 4}}`

Step-by-step explanation:

`\text{Density} = (m)/(V) = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\\begin{array}{cccc}\textbf{Metal}&\textbf{Mass/g} & \textbf{Volume/cm}^(3) & \textbf{Density/g$\cdot$cm}^(-3)\\1 & 22.1 & 3.00 & 7.36\\2 & 42.0 & 4.00 & 10.5\\3 & 9.32 & 5.00 & 1.86\\\mathbf{4} & 8.13 & 3.00 & \mathbf{2.71}\\\end{array}\\\text{The manufacturer selected $\large \boxed{\textbf{Metal 4}}$}`
