Expert Solution
Step 1: given data

M a s s space o f space c o i n equals 1.11 cross times 10 to the power of negative 2 end exponent k g
w e i g h t space o f space c o i n space i n space w a t e r space equals space 0.1011 space N
D e n s i t y space o f space c o p p e r equals space 8.89 cross times 10 cubed k g divided by m cubed
d e n s i t y space o f space s i l v e r equals 1.05 cross times 10 to the power of 4 k g divided by m cubed
D e n s i t y space o f space w a t e r equals 10 cubed k g divided by m cubed
