Answer:

Density = 8.89 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

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


Density = (mass)/(volume)

From the question

mass of copper = 75.6 g

volume = 8.5 cm³

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's


Density = (75.6)/(8.5) \\ = 8.8941176

We have the final answer as

Density = 8.89 g/cm³

Hope this helps you
