Answer:

3.824g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of a substance can be calculated using:

Density = mass/volume

The volume of of a metal cube that is 1.30 cm in length is:

Volume = 1.3cm × 1.3cm × 1.3cm

V = 2.197cm³

Since mass = 8.402 g and volume = 2.197cm³

Density = 8.402/2.197

Density = 3.824g/cm³
