Answer

$1.1mol$

Work Step by Step

We can determine the required number of moles as follows: $V=(2\times 10^{-2}m)^3=8\times 10^{-3}m^3$ and $M=\rho V$ $\implies M=(8920Kg/m^3)(8\times 10^{-6}m^3)=0.07136Kg=71.36g$ Now $n=\frac{M}{M_{mol}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $n=\frac{1mol}{64g}(71.36g)$ $\implies n=1.1mol$
