The density of the coin, given the data from the question is 21.33 g/mL.

<h3>What is density? </h3>

The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as

Density = mass / volume

<h3>How to determine the density of the coin</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Volume of coin = 2.25 L = 2.25 × 1000 = 2250 mL
  • Mass of coin = 48 Kg = 48 × 1000 = 48000 g
  • Density of coin =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 48000 / 2250

Density = 21.33 g/mL

<h3>How to determine the metal</h3>

The density of the coin obtained, given the data from the question is 21.33 g/mL

Considering the options given, the density of the metal is not specified.
