Question

Given that the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm^3, calculate the volume (in cm^3) of a gold nugget with a mass of 5.98 g. (a) 3.23 cm^3 (b) 5.98 cm^3 (c) 115 cm^3 (d) 0.310 cm^3 (e) 13.3 cm^3

Answer 1

0.310

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The volume of gold nugget is 0.310
`cm^(3)`

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,
`density = (mass)/(volume)`

Here mass of gold nugget is 5.98 g

here density of gold nugget is 19.3
`g/cm^(3)`

So volume of gold nugget =
`(mass)/(density)`

=
`(5.98 g)/(19.3 g/cm^(3))`

= 0.310
`g/cm^(3)`
