    The density of the butter = 862.07 kg/m³

    Explanation:

    Density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of that substance. The S. I unit of density is kg/m³

    Density can be represented as,

    D = m/v ... Equation 1

    Where D = density of the butter, m = mass of the butter, v = volume of the butter.

    Note: From Archimedes principle, an object displace an amount of water equal to his own volume when immersed in water.

    Given: m = 10 g = 0.01 kg,

    v = volume of water displaced in the cylinder = 11.6 mL. = 11.6/1000000 = 0.0000116 m³

    Substituting these values into equation 1

    D = 0.01/0.0000116

    D = 862.07 kg/m³

    Thus the density of the butter = 862.07 kg/m³

    Thus The d
