Question

the weight of gold jewelry can vary depending on the style, size, and the type of gold its made from. a 5.0 g nugget of pure gold has a density of 19.3 g/cm3. your friend purchased his girlfriend a bracelet made of 3 grams of pure gold. density = mass/volume. what is the density of the bracelet? 19.3 g/cm3 1.66 g/cm3 20.5 g/cm3

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density property of pure gold

Density of a pure - substance is a characteristic property and does not depend on the mass or size of the sample.

Step2: Determine density of bracelet

Since the bracelet is made of pure gold, its density is the same as the density of pure gold. Given that the density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³, the density of the bracelet (made of pure gold) is also 19.3 g/cm³.

Answer:

19.3 g/cm³
