Answer:

The answer is 47.4 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

volume = 15.8 cm³

density = 3 g/cm³

We have

mass = 3 × 15.8

We have the final answer as

47.4 g

Hope this helps you
