How do you you find the density of an object by comparing it to another known density of a solution?

If your experiment shows that your unknown material has twice the density of your known material, you can simply look up the density of the control material and double it (or multiply by whatever the ratio is). This will give you the density of the unknown and you can attempt to identify it by looking for this number in a density table.
