Answer:

The answer is

110.2 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question

density of rock = 5.8 g/mL

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 12.4 - 10.5 = 1.9 mL

The mass of the rock is

mass = 5.8 × 1.9

We have the final answer as

110.2 g

Hope this helps you
