"density" = 1.85 "g/cm"^3

Explanation:

Well, if you know part 1, then the mass of the corn oil is 204 "g" (zero decimal places, as per rules of significant figures), and we're given its volume is 110.0 "cm"^3.

The equation for density is

"density" = "mass"/"volume"

We know:

  • "mass" = 204 "g"

  • "volume" = 110.0 "cm"^3

Plugging these in:

"density" = (204color(white)(l)"g")/(110.0color(white)(l)"cm"^3) = color(red)(ulbar(|stackrel(" ")(" "1.85color(white)(l)"g/cm"^3" ")|)

rounded to 3 significant figures.
