A cylinder has a length of 3.23 cm, a diameter of 1.75 cm, and a mass of 65.3 grams. What is the density of the cylinder? Based on its density, of what kind of material might it be made? Material is likely to be: ______________________________ (Show your work.)

Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. We calculate density as follows:

density = mass / volume
density = 65.3 g / π(1.75/2 cm)^2 ( 3.23 cm )
density = 8.41 g/cm^3
