A person would weigh more on Neptune than on planet earth because the gravitational field strength is stronger on Neptune.
Use the volume and density of the gold statue to calculate the mass of the statue.
density = mass / volume, or rearranged, mass = density • volume
Convert the volume of the statue from L to mL so volume unit agrees with density unit
mass of statue = 19.3 g/mL • 1000 mL = 19 300 g
Mass of sand must be same as the mass of the statue, 19 300 g
Use the mass and density of the sand to calculate the volume of sand needed
density = mass / volume, or rearranged, volume = mass / density
volume of sand needed = 19 300 g / 23 g/mL = 8391 mL or 8.391 L

Calculate the density of the statue from the measured mass and volume. If the calculated density agrees with the known density of gold, then the statue is made from pure gold.
density = mass / volume
Convert the mass from kg to g as you want the answer in g/mL so you can compare it to the reference value of gold given in the problem. 16.5 kg • 1000 g / 1 kg = 16 500 g
density of the statue = 16 500 g / 954 mL = 17.3 g/mL
Since this density, 17.3 g/mL is significantly different from the known density of gold, 19.3 g/mL, the statue cannot be made of pure gold. The gold was mixed with a less dense metal.
Steel because it is a physical combination of different metals.
Should this not be in biology? But the answer is Endoplasmic reticulum
