Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

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

$density = (mass)/(volume) \\$

From the question

mass = 8.11 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 44.72 - 25.26 = 19.46 mL

We have

$density = (8.11)/(19.46) \\ = 0.416752312...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
