Firstly, the density of any substance is represented by the mass (amount of matter) as divided by the volume(amount of space). According to external websites, the mass of a penny is 2.5 grams.However, the volume of a penny is .35cm to the power of 3 (due to the thickness of the penny being extremely minimal.Thus the amount of density is extremely little). Therefore, the density of a penny is 0.875 g/cm cubed (dimensional analysis).As for an invention that could be used, that is possible with the usage of a series of measurements that can both calculate mass and volume and directly allocate that to attain density
<span>The density of the solution =1.05 g/ml.

Find moles of CaCl2 and water.
Molar mass of CaCl2 = 110 (approx.)
Moles of CaCl2 = 23.7 / 110 = 0.22
so, moles of Cl- ion = 2 x 0.22 = 0.44 (because each molecule of CaCl2 will give two Cl- ions)
Moles of water = 375 / 18 = 20.83
Now, Mole fraction of CaCl2 = (moles of CaCl2) / (total moles)
total moles = moles of Cl- ions + moles of Ca2+ ions + moles of water
= 0.44 + 0.22 + 20.83
=21.49
So, mole fraction = 0.44 / (21.49) = 0.02
Guess what !!! density is not used. No need
