Answer

$1.6\times 10^6\; g/m^3$.

Work Step by Step

Mass of Neptune $m=1.02\times 10^{26}\;kg=1.02\times 10^{29}\;g$. Radius of Neptune $r=2.48\times 10^4\;km=2.48\times 10^7\;m$. Volume of Neptune $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (2.48\times 10^7\;m)^3$ $V=6.4\times 10^{22}\;m^3$ Density. $=\frac{m}{V}$ Substitute all values. $=\frac{1.02\times 10^{29}\;g}{6.4\times 10^{22}\;m^3}$ Simplify. $=1.6\times 10^6\; g/m^3$.
