Answer: 16.791 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find mass we use here is :
[tex]\text{Mass}=\text{Density}\times\text{Volume}[/tex]
Given : A small gold nugget has volume of [tex]0.87\ cm^3[/tex]
The density of the gold is [tex]19.3\ g/cm^3[/tex]
Then, the mass of gold nugget is given by :-
[tex]\text{Mass}=19.3\times0.87=16.791 \text{ grams}[/tex]
Hence, the mass of gold nugget = 16.791 grams
