The density in lbs/in³ units : 0.697
Given
Density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³
Required
Conversion to lbs/in³
Solution
Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume
Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume
Density formula:
[tex]\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}[/tex]
Conversion factor
1 g = 0,00220462 lbs
1 cm³ = 0,0610237 in³
So the density :
[tex]\tt 19.3~\dfrac{g}{1~cm^3}\times \dfrac{cm^3}{0.0610237~in^3}\times \dfrac{0.00220462~lbs}{1~g}=0.697~lbs/in^3[/tex]
