Joe found a gold nugget which had a mass density of 19.2 g/cm^3. When he dropped it into water in a graduated cylinder, the water level increased by 15.0 mL. How many grams of gold did Joe have?

OpenStudy (praxer):

The volume of the water level increase= volume of the gold nugget dropped Since the density of the gold nugget is given hence we can find the mass of the gold nugget easily by the relation. Mass = (density of the substance )*(volume of the substance) Please take care of the units during the calculation the of this kind of problem.
