Answer:

                       1.42 g/mL

Explanation:

                    The mass per unit volume is called as density. It is an intensive property and its value doesn't depend upon the amount of a substance.

It is given as,

                                   Density  =  Mass / Volume

Data Given:

Mass of Liquid + Flask  =  163.4 g

Volume of Liquid = 5.98 mL

Mass of empty Flask = 154.9 g

Mass of Liquid  = 163.4 g - 154.9 g =  8.5 g

Formula Used:

                     Density  =  Mass / Volume

                     Density  =  8.5 g / 5.98 mL

                     Density  =  1.42 g/mL
