Answer:

The answer is 6.12 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 = 1.36 g/mL

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 21.3 - 16.8 = 4.5 mL

The mass of the rock is

mass = 1.36 × 4.5

We have the final answer as

6.12 g

Hope this helps you
