Answer:

a) 51.8 cm³

b) kg/m³ is a dimension of density (mass/volume). The regular unitys for volume are m³, cm³, L, gallons.

Explanation:

a) The density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³. When put in water, the piece of gold will occupy a volume, so that the volume of water will be displaced. To know the volume, we must divide the mass for the density (mass must be in grams because of the units of the density)

V = 1000/19.3

V = 51.8 cm³
