PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER

One way to help identify a substance is to compare the density of the substance with the density of a known substance. Suppose a cube of a gold-colored metal with a volume of 58 cm3 has a mass of 979 g. The density of pure gold is known to be 19.3 g/cm3. Based on this information, could the metal be pure gold?

A.No. The density is more than pure gold.
B.No. The density is less than pure gold.
C.Yes. The density equals that of pure gold.

So the way to determine is to find the density of your unknown metal. To do that, you know density is g/mL or g/cm3. So, you do 979/58. It is approximately 16.88 g/mL. So, the density is more than pure gold. (A)

I’m not 100% sure that mL = cm3 for this case so make sure you check that but that’s what I think the answer is!
