Answer:

a) The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.

b) The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.

Explanation:

The volume of the rectangular wooden block can be calculated as the multiplication of the length in each dimension: length, wide and height.

With dimensions 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm, the volume is:

$V=L\cdot W\cdot H = 10\cdot 3\cdot 8=240$

The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.

If we know that the mass of the wooden block is 168 g, we can calculate the density as:

$\rho = (M)/(V)=(168)/(240)=0.7$

The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.
