Conclusions:
The density of the test item was calculated as 2.0401 ± 0.0009 g/cm³ at 20.0 ± 0.2°C
Executive summary:

According to OECD 109, using the pycnometer method, a density of 2.0401 ± 0.0009 g/cm³ at 20.0 ± 0.2°C was measured.

This value is the mean of two independent determinations with the maximum error of a single determination.

Standard deviation was 0.0116 g/cm³, showing good correlation of the two determinations.

Therefore, the study is considered valid.

The relative density of the test item has the same number value, but no unit, assuming that relative density is given as the ratio of test item density to density of water at 4°C, having a standard density of 0.999975

g/cm³ (source: CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Pyhsics - 90th edition / Section 6 - Fluid properties - p.6 -7).

Additional information

The density of the substance, determinded by pycnomter method, was calculated as 2.0401 ± 0.0009 g/cm3 at 20.0 ± 0.2°C.

This value is the mean of two independent determinations with the maximum error of a single determination.

Standard deviation was 0.0116 g/cm3, showing good correlation of the two determinations.

The relative density of the test item has the same number value, but no unit, assuming that relative density is given as the ratio of test item density to density of water at 4°C, having a standard density of 0.999975 g/cm³ (source: CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Pyhsics - 90th edition / Section 6 - Fluid properties - p.6 -7).
