Answer:

The answer is 3.44 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

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


density = (mass)/(volume) \\

From the question

mass = 17.2 g

volume = 5 cm³

We have


density = (17.2)/(5) \\

We have the final answer as

3.44 g/cm³

Hope this helps you
