Answer:

[tex]{\boxed{\text{b. 2.5 g/cm}^{3}}}[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]\text{Density} = \dfrac{m}{V} = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}[/tex]

Data:

m = 10 g

V = 4 cm³

Calculation:

[tex]\text{Density} = \dfrac{\text{10 g}}{\text{4 cm}^{3}} = \textbf{2.5 g/cm}^{3}\\\text{The density of the crystal is ${\boxed{\textbf{2.5 g/cm}^{3}}}$}[/tex]
