The density of pure copper at room temperature is approximately 8,960 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³). This high density is a key physical property of copper, contributing to its use in applications where mass and durability are important.

As a metallic element, copper exists as individual atoms in its solid state, forming a metallic lattice. Therefore, its chemical formula is simply its atomic symbol, Cu. It does not form discrete formula units in the same way that ionic or covalent compounds do.
