Determining Density and Using Density to Determine Volume or Mass

(a)        Calculate the density of mercury if 1.00 * 102 g occupies a volume of 7.36 cm3.

(b)        Calculate the volume of 65.0 g of liquid methanol (wood alcohol) if its density is 0.791 g/mL.

(c)        What is the mass in grams of a cube of gold (density = 19.32 g/cm3) if the length of the cube is 2.00 cm?

Platinum, Pt, is one of the rarest of the metals. Worldwide annual production is only about 130 tons, (a) Platinum has a density of 21.4 g/cm3. If thieves were to steal platinum from a bank using a small truck with a maximum payload of 900 lb, how many 1 L bars of the metal could they make off with? (a) 19 bars, (b) 2 bars, (c) 42 bars, (d) 1 bar, (e) 47 bars.
