The density of gold is 19.3g/cm3. The density or iron pyrite is 5.0g/cm3. If a nugget of iron pyrite and a nugget of gold each have a mass of 50g, what can you conclude about the volume or each nugget?

    Density of an object is computed by dividing its mass by its volume. D = M / V

    However, since Volume is the missing component in the equation. Mass of an object is divided by its density to get its volume. V = M / D

    Volume of Gold nugget = 50 g / 19.3g/cm3 = 2.59cm3

    Volume of Iron Pyrite nugget = 50 g / 5.0g/cm3 = 10cm3
