Given the density of Au is 19.3 g/cm3. Determine the mass of gold in an ingot with the dimension of 10.0 cm x 4.00cm x 3.00cm.

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.317 kg

Explanation:

Density = mass / vol

Vol = 10 x4 x 3 =120

Density=19.3 gm/cm3

Mass= density x vol =2316 gm or 2.317 kg

Answer: The mass of gold is 2316 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

[tex]V=lbh[/tex]

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 4 cm

h = height of cuboid = 3 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]V=10\times 4\times 3=120cm^3[/tex]

To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:

[tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]19.3g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of Gold}}{120cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of osmium}=2316g[/tex]

Hence, the mass of gold is 2316 grams.
