Question

gold has a density of 19.32 g/cm3 if you cut a piece of gold in half how much will the density of each piece be?

Answer 1

Answer:

19.32 g/cm³

Explanation:

The density will remain the same no matter how many times you cut the gold.  The density is g/cm³ or g/mL.  Density is essentially how many grams 1 mL of a compound weighs.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 19.32 \ g/cm^3}}$

Explanation:

Density is the mass per volume (g/mL or g/cm³). It is an intrinsic property. This means it is not dependent on the amount and all samples of the same substance have the same density.

Therefore, if a piece of gold has a density of 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter and it is cut in half, the two pieces will have the same density.
