Question

A crown made of gold and copper weights 210 g in air and 198 g in water. The weight of gold in crown is : -
[Given : Density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3 and Density of copper = 8.5 g/cm3]

Options

A.93 g
B.100 g
C.150 g
D.193 g

Solution

Let mass of gold is m then mass of copper = 210-m upthrust = loss of weight
= 210g - 198g ⇒ Vln ρwg = 12g ⇒ Vln = 12 cm3
Total volume
= = 12 ⇒ = 12
m = 193.
So weight of gold = 193 g
