Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The density of metal = 8 g/cm^3

The Mass of the Solid Cube = Mass of the metal = 1 kg = 1000 g

We know that,

Density = Mass / Volume

8 = 1000 / V


V = 1000/8\\V = 125 cm^3

Hence, as the volume of the solid cube is 125 cm^3, its side will be the volume's cube root which is 5 cm
