Answer:
Density, [tex]d=19.3\ g/cm^3[/tex]
Explanation:
Mass of the sample of gold, m = 38.6 grams
Volume of gold sample, [tex]V=2\ cm^3[/tex]
The density of gold sample is given by mass per unit volume. Mathematically, it is given by :
[tex]d=\dfrac{m}{V}[/tex]
[tex]d=\dfrac{38.6\ g}{2\ cm^3}[/tex]
[tex]d=19.3\ g/cm^3[/tex]
So, the density of the sample of gold is [tex]19.3\ g/cm^3[/tex]. Hence, this is the required solution.
