Answer:

The answer is

2.7 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

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


Density = (mass)/(volume)

From the question

mass of aluminum = 40.5 g

volume = 15 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

We have


Density = (40.5)/(15)

We have the final answer as

2.7 g/mL

Hope this helps you
