Answer:

The answer is

11.33 g/mL

Step-by-step explanation:

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


density = (mass)/(volume) \\

From the question

mass of metal = 34 g

volume of metal = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 25.3 - 22.3 = 3.0 mL

The density is


density = (34)/(3) \\ = 11.33333...

We have the final answer as

11.33 g/mL

Hope this helps you
