It is 0.825g/cm^3. Use the area of the wood to find the area of the water displaced with a depth of 1.65. This will give you the volume of the water and multiply that by it's density(1000kg/m^3) to reveal the mass of the water. The mass of the water should be equal to the mass of the wood. Divide this mass by the volume of the wood(not the water segment), which will give you the density of the wood block. Be careful with the unit conversions, you may do the right math, but still have the wrong answer.
