The density in lbs/in³ units : 0.697

Further explanation

Given

Density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³

Required

Conversion to lbs/in³

Solution

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

Density formula:


\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}

Conversion factor

1 g = 0,00220462 lbs

1 cm³ = 0,0610237 in³

So the density :


\tt 19.3~(g)/(1~cm^3)* (cm^3)/(0.0610237~in^3)* (0.00220462~lbs)/(1~g)=0.697~lbs/in^3
