density is mass/ volume.
pure gold's density is 19.30 g/cm^3
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
sorry im not good at this so i might sound really stupid when i ask this question but , what does that mean then?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you just substitute the value :) you are given a mass of 500 grams and a volume of 8 cc, so to get the denstity you divide the mass by the volume :)
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
62 500 kg / m^3???

no need to convert, answer should be 62.5g/cc. Compare the value with pure gold's density which is 19 g/cc to know if the unknown substance is pure gold or not :)
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
it isn't pure gold because the value is higher than the density of pure gold...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's right :)
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
really!?
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):

OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
ohh ok, so would i write out the division problem on the line provided?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
alright :D thanks so much it really helped!
OpenStudy (ilovebmth1234):
i put 500g/8cc on the first line and 62.5g/cc on the second... correct?
