Work Step by Step

Given $$\begin{aligned} \text{mass}& = 0.384 \text{ g}\\ \text{volume}& = 0.32 \text{ cm}^{3} \end{aligned}$$ We use the formula for density: $$\begin{aligned} \text{density}& = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\ &=\frac{0.384\text{ g}}{0.32\text{ cm}^3}\\ &=1.2\text{ g/cm}^3. \end{aligned}$$ Based on density the other compound is Caffeine.
