Answer:

296.448 g

Explanation:

Density:

we know that density of an object can be measured by dividing its mass to its volume.

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m= mass

V= volume

Given data:

volume= 1.2 cm x 4.00 cm x 3.20 cm =15.36 cm3

density=  19.3 g/cm3

mass=?

Now we will put the values in the formula,

d=m/v

d x V= m

m = 15.36 cm3 x 19.3 g/cm3

m=296.448 g

so the mass of block of gold is 296.448 g
