Geometry word problems

 A square prism container with the base of 5 cm x 5 cm is partially filled with water. You drop a clip of metal with mass 525 g into the container, and the water level rises to centimeters. What is the density of the metal? Assuming the metal is pure, what is the metal?

metal volume=5*5*2=50 cm3
metal density= 525/50=10.5 g/cm3
the metal is silver
