Question

The density of gold is 19.32 g/mL what is the volume of a nugget of gold with a mass of 71.13 g?

Answer 1

3.69 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = mass/volume

D = m/V Multiply each side by V

DV = m Divide each side by D

V = m/D

Data:

m = 71.13 g

D = 19.3 g/cm³

Calculation:

V = 71.13 g × (1 cm³/19.3 g)

= 3.69 cm³

The nugget has a volume of 3.69 cm³.
