If it remains cube shaped (ie all sides decrease by one half) then the volume of the cube is reduced to one-eighth of its original volume. (1/2)3 = 1/8
No, it is not. It is half of it.
The volume of a cube is the length of one of its sides (since all sides have equal length, for a cube) cubed. To find the side length from the volume, find the cubic root - in this case, it is easy as the cubic root of 8 is exactly 2. Now, because the centre of the cube is halfway between one side and its opposite, and one side being its base, the distance from the centre to that base will be half of its side length. For this cube, this is 2/2 which is 1.

Try it out. A cube with four-inch sides has a volume of 64 cubic inches. A cube with two-inch sides has a volume of 8 cubic inches. That's eight times less.
The volume of a cube is x3 where x is the side length. Therefore the volume of half a cube would be x3/2. For instance, if the side length of a cube was 2cm, the volume of one half would be 23/2 which comes out at 4cm3

The volume of a cube with a side of 6 and one half inches is: 274.6 cubic inches.
The volume will stay the same, because you are not taking any volume away, nor adding any. Therefore the volume will stay the same.
A cubic centimeter of space is a measure of volume. It is the volume marked out by a cube that is one centimeter on an edge. There are about 2.54 centimeters in an inch, so the cube will be a bit less than half an inch cubed, or a cube a bit less than half an inch on an edge.
It could mean a cube tat has been cut into a half so that it is a cuboid. Or, it could mean a cube, each of whose sides is half a unit.

If pressure is applied to a cube until its volume is halved, the density will increase by a factor of 2, since density is equal to mass divided by volume. As the volume decreases by half, the mass of the cube remains the same, leading to a doubling of density.
