Question

Diamond has a density of 3.513 g/cm³. The mass of diamonds is often measured in "carats," where 1 carat equals 0.200

Answer 1

The volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters is 0.106 cm³

Given,

The density of a diamond is  3.513 g/cm³.

We have to find out the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters.

Convert the units of the diamond from carat to grams, we have:

(1.86 carats) x (0.200 g / 1 carat) = 0.372 g

The volume of the diamond is obtained by dividing the mass by the density, therefore using the formula, we get

                            v = m / d

                            v = 0.372 g / (3.51 g/cm³) = 0.1059 cm³

                       or, v = 0.106 cm³ (approx)

Therefore, the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond is approximately 0.106 cm³.
