The volume of the block is: 5x6x0.5= 15 cm^3. However the solution must be in liters, and a liter equals to 1 dm^3, and that equals to 1000cm^3. So the final solution is: 15cm^3 x(1dm^3/1000cm^3)=0.015dm^3=0.015L

Actually it's unknown because it's unknown if the bath is full of water or instead, empty
