Answer:

~1.5 g/cm3 and it does NOT float in water.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the graph, Object A weighs ~6 grams and is ~4 cm3 in volume

Density = Mass/Volume

So 6 grams/4 cm3 = 1.5 g/cm3

Water has a density of 1 g/cm3 and because Object A density is higher than that of water, it sinks.
