Answer:

The answer is 1.59 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

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


volume = (mass)/(density) \\

From the question

mass = 12.5 g

density = 7.87 g/cm³

We have


volume = (12.5)/(7.87) \\ = 1.588310038...

We have the final answer as

1.59 cm³

Hope this helps you
