Gold is a very dense metal with a density of 18.3 g/cm3, what is the volume of a 0.255 kg gold sample?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that - 

Density of Gold = 18.3 g/cm3 

Mass of Gold sample = 0.255 kg 

This mass in grams is = 0.255×1000 = 255 grams 

 

Then from the following relationship - 

d =mv  

 

Where - 

d = density of  Gold sample = 18.3 g/cm3 

m = mass of Gold sample = 255 g 

v = volume of Gold sample = ?
