Answer:

Density of block of gold is 3.5 g/cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Volume of block = 1000 mL

Mass of block = 3.5 kg (3.5×1000 = 3500 g)

Density of block = ?

Solution:

Density of substance is calculated by dividing the mass of substance over its volume.

Formula:

d = m/v

d = 3500 g/ 1000 mL

d = 3.5 g/mL

or

d = 3.5 g/cm³ (1ml = 1cm³)
