Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 9.2 cm x 4.1 cm x 17.8 cm
Volume = 658.824 cm³
Round to the nearest 0.1 cm³: 658.8 cm³
b. How much does each bar weigh?
Weight = Volume x Density
Weight = 658.8 cm³ x 19.3 g/cm³
Weight = 12,712.44 grams
Weight = 12.7 kg
Each bar weighs approximately 12.7 kg.
