It is not a good laboratory practice to identify or confirm metals only based on density measurements it is far too insecure and inaccurate.
Some (sorted from 2.5 to 3.5 g/mL) table figures shows why:
Extra: metals often appear to be impured by other metals and also often as alloys (deliberately made mixtures)

To calculate the volume of the silver metal, divide the mass by the density. Volume = mass / density = 2500 g / 10.5 g/cm^3 = 238.1 cm^3. Therefore, 2500 g of silver metal will have a volume of 238.1 cm^3.
Assuming that the metal's density is measured in grams per centimeter cubed (and not, for instance, grams per liter), the volume is found by dividing the mass by the density. In this case, it's approximately 2.341 centimeters cubed.
The density of the brick is calculated by dividing its mass by its volume. In this case, the density of the brick is 150g / 50cm3 = 3 g/cm3.
The density of the metal can be calculated by dividing the mass (25g) by the volume (10 cm^3). Therefore, the density of the metal is 2.5 g/cm^3.
Density is grams per cm3. 615/105 = 5.86 g/cm3
The density of the metal cube is 0.6 g/cm3. Density is calculated by dividing the mass (0.6g) by the volume (1 cm3).

Density = Mass/Volume = 17/4 = 4.25 grams per cm3
Density = mass/volume = 5/12 = 0.4166... gms per cm3. This figure is well below the density of lithium, the least dense of metallic elements.
To calculate the volume of the silver metal, divide the mass by the density. Volume = mass / density = 2500 g / 10.5 g/cm^3 = 238.1 cm^3. Therefore, 2500 g of silver metal will have a volume of 238.1 cm^3.
Assuming that the metal's density is measured in grams per centimeter cubed (and not, for instance, grams per liter), the volume is found by dividing the mass by the density. In this case, it's approximately 2.341 centimeters cubed.
As far as I am aware, there is no elemental metal with a density of 9.5 g per cm3. Thulium (9.32) is followed by Bismuth (9.75). But I presume that you can alloy one or metals with density lower than 9.5 and one or more with higher density.
The density of water is 1 gram per cm3 .
use formula: density = mass per volume so the density is 2000 g / 4000 cm3 = 0.5 g/cm3
It is easiest to answer this question using the metric system. 148.5 pounds = 67.36 kilograms So density = 67.36 / 30.5 kg per cm3 = 2.208 kg per cm3 = 2208 grams per cm3 Density of water = 1 gram per cm3 So specific gravity of the mass = density of the mass / density of water = 2208
