The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³
Ag= silver
Au= gold.
density (Ag)=10.5 g/cm³.
density (Au)=19.3 g/cm³
We have to calculate the mass of 5 cm³ silver:
10.5 g---------------------1 cm³
x--------------------------- 5 cm³
x=(10.5 g * 5 cm³) / 1cm³ ≈52.5 g
And we have to calculate the mass of 5 g gold.
19.3 g------------------------1 cm³
x-------------------------------5 cm³
x=(19.3 g * 5 cm³) / 1cm³≈96.5 g
Then 5 cm³ silver are 52.5 g of mass, and 5 cm³ gold are 96.5 g of mass, therefore, gold would have a greater mass than silver.
answer:5 cm³ gold would have a greater mass than 5 cm³ silver.
