Gold has a density of 19.3g/cm^3. What is the mass in kilograms of one cubic meter of gold?

Step 1. 1 kg = 1000 g and 1 m = 100 cm

Step 2. 19.3 g/cm^3 * 1kg/1000g * ((100)^3 cm^3/(1 m^3))* 1 m^3 = 19.3*1000000/1000 = 19.3*1000 kg = 1.93 x 10^4 kg

Step 3. ANSWER is 19,300 kg

I hope the above steps were helpful.
