SUMMARY
The density of the metal sample can be calculated using the provided weights in different mediums. The weight in air is 210 g, in water is 180 g, and in an unknown liquid is 120 g. Using Archimedes' principle, the density of the metal can be determined as 1.5 g/cm³. This conclusion is reached by applying the formula for density, which is mass divided by volume, and considering the buoyant forces acting on the sample.
