Question

A gold cube is 150.00 mm long, 10.00 cm wide, and 0.95 m thick. If gold has a density of 19.3g/cm3. Calculate the mass of the gold cube.

Help?

Answer 1

V = l * w * h

V = 150.00 mm x 1cm/10 mm x 10.00 cm x 0.95 m x 100 cm/1 m = 1.4 x 104 cm3 D = M/V

M = D * V = 19.3 g/cm^3 * 1.4 * 104 cm^3 = 2.7 x 10^5 g = 270000 grams
