Density = mass/volume = 5.4g/(9*2*6) cm3 = 5.4/108 cm3 = 0.05 g/cm3. Balsa, one of the least dense woods, has a density of 0.16 g/cm3 which is more than 3 times the "density" of your wood! So have you discovered a super-light wood species?
If the density of the block is less than the density of water, then the block will float. Density of water is close to 1 gram per cubic centimeter. So measure the block and calculate its volume (Length x Width x Height). Use a scale to find the block's mass. Then divide mass/volume to calculate density. If you've measured in grams and centimeters, then the units will be g/cm³, then compare this to 1 g/cm³.
u need the volume . if u did have the volume u would divide the mass (27g) by the volume. then add the label g/ml
density = mass ÷ volume = 600 g ÷ 30 cm3 = 20 g/cm3
Density= Volume/Mass. Therefore: (9x2x6)divided by 5.4g=Density. 108cm/5.4g=Density. 20=Density.
