All you need to know to solve this problem is the density of copper (mass per unit volume). Look it up on Wikipedia (link below) 8.96g/cm^3
125g x cm^3/8.96g = 13.9 cm^3

The relationship between volume and mass is Density.
Density = mass / volume
So, doing a little algebra, volume = mass / density.
We must look up the value of the density of copper, which is found from the link below.
8920 kg /m^3 = 8.92 g / cm^3
volume = 125g / 8.92g/cm^3 = 14.0 cm^3

D=m/v
8.9=125/v
solve for v
(multiply)
