Answer

The density of galena is 7.56 $\frac{g}{cm^{3}}$

Work Step by Step

1- Density is the mass per unit of volume. In formula: d= $\frac{m}{v}$ 2-We know the mass of the sample is 12.4 while the volume is 1.64 $cm^{3}$. 3- Replace the value of mass and volume in formula of density: d= $\frac{12.4 g }{1.64 cm^{3}}$ 4- We calculate the density of galena 7.56 g/ $cm^{3}$
