Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 7.92 g/mL

Explanation:

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

$density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 49.10 - 45.50 = 3.6 mL

We have

$density = \frac{28.5}{3.6} \\ = 7.91666666...$

We have the final answer as

7.92 g/mL
