Question

A small gold nugget has volume of 0.87 cm 3 . What is its mass if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm 3 ?

Answer 1

Answer: 16.791 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find mass we use here is :

$\text{Mass}=\text{Density}\times\text{Volume}$

Given : A small gold nugget has volume of $0.87\ cm^3$

The density of the gold is $19.3\ g/cm^3$

Then, the mass of gold nugget is given by :-

$\text{Mass}=19.3\times0.87=16.791 \text{ grams}$

Hence, the mass of gold nugget = 16.791 grams

Answer 2

19.3 g/cm³ x 0.87 cm³ = 16.8 g

Hope this helped. good luck!
