d= m/v g/mL or g/cm3 A gas fills a volume of 1200. mL and has a mass of 1.60 g. What is the density of the gas?

A cube of pure silver measures 2.0 cm on each side. The density of silver is 10.5 g/cm3. What is the mass of the cube?

Let's solve each of the questions step by step.

### 1. **Finding the density of the gas:**
The formula for density is:

\[
d = \frac{m}{v}
\]

Where:
- \(d\) is the density,
- \(m\) is the mass,
- \(v\) is the volume.

In this case, we are given:
- \(m = 1.60 \, \text{g}\),
- \(v = 1200 \, \text{mL}\).

We can use the formula directly to find the density:

\[
d = \frac{1.60 \, \text{g}}{1200 \, \text{mL}} = 0.00133 \, \text{g/mL}
\]

Thus, the density of the gas is **0.00133 g/mL**.

### 2. **Finding the mass of the silver cube:**
We are given:
- The side of the cube \(a = 2.0 \, \text{cm}\),
- The density of silver \(\rho = 10.5 \, \text{g/cm}^3\).

First, find the volume of the cube using the formula for the volume of a cube:

\[
V = a^3 = (2.0 \, \text{cm})^3 = 8.0 \, \text{cm}^3
\]

Next, use the density formula to find the mass:

\[
m = \rho \times V = 10.5 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \times 8.0 \, \text{cm}^3 = 84.0 \, \text{g}
\]

Thus, the mass of the silver cube is **84.0 g**.
