To find density you divide mass by volume. (d=m/v)

Answer:

The density of the sugar is 1.6 g/ml.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 8.8 grams

Volume = 5.5 ml

We need to calculate the density of the sugar

Using formula of density

\(\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\)

Where, m = mass

V = volume

Put the value into the formula

\(\rho = \dfrac{8.8}{5.5}\)

\(\rho =1.6\ g/ml\)

Hence, The density of the sugar is 1.6 g/ml.
