Answer:

The answer is

21.45 g/cm³

Explanation:

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


density = (mass)/(volume) \\

From the question

mass of platinum = 214.5 g

volume = 10 cm³

It's density is


density = (214.5)/(10) \\

We have the final answer as

21.45 g/cm³

Hope this helps you
