1. Density of Gold:
* The density of pure gold is approximately 19.32 g/cm³.
2. Mass of the Gold Bar:
* You have a 25 kg gold bar.
* Convert kilograms to grams: 25 kg * 1000 g/kg = 25000 g
3. Volume Calculation:
* Volume = Mass / Density
* Volume = 25000 g / 19.32 g/cm³
* Volume ≈ 1293.6 cm³
Therefore, the approximate volume of a 25-kg 24-karat gold bar is 1293.6 cubic centimeters.
Important Note: The fineness of the gold (999.99) indicates its purity and is essentially irrelevant for calculating volume. This calculation assumes the gold bar is 100% pure gold.
