Answer:

1.1178 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of volume and density is mass:

(2.3 cm^3)(0.486 g/cm^3) = 1.1178 g

_____

It would be a very unusual piece of metal that would float higher in water than most kinds of wood. The given "metal" at (0.486) has less than 3/4 the density of birch (at 0.67), which is a pretty light wood.
