Answer:

Density = 8.92 g/cm³

Explanation:

Density shows the relation of the mass and volume of a determined object. We have this deffinition:

Density = mass / volume

First of all, we calcualte the volume of the block of copper metal, with the data given:

8.4 cm . 5.5 cm . 4.6 cm = 212.52 cm³

Now we replace at the density formula:

Density = 1896 g /212.52 cm³ = 8.92 g/cm³
