The specific gravity of gold is 19.3. what is the length of one side of a 0.4 kilograms cube of solid gold, in units of inches?

Specif gravity = density of the material / density of water

density of the material = specific gravity * density of water

density of gold = 19.3 * 1 g/mL = 19.3 g/mL

density = mass / volume ==> Volume = mass / density

Volume = 0.4 kg * 1000 g/kg / 19.3 g/mL = 20.725 mL

Length of one side of the cube = = 2.75 cm

Pass cm to inches
2.75 cm * 1 inch / 2.54 cm = 1.08 inch

Tolerance to high levels of salinity
