Best Answer

1 cubic inch of pure gold weighs 316.598 grams; 10.17886 troy oz; or 11.16767 imperial ounces.

The above answer is rounded to the nearest milligram or to the 5th decimal position on both imperial and troy ounces.

These numbers are detailed approximations based upon the following information and formula:

There are 19.32 grams of gold per cubic centimeter (assuming 99.9+% pure gold)

One cubic inch = 16.387064 cubic centimeters

One gram =

0.0321507466 troy ounce or

0.0352739619 ounces

This information reduces this to a matter of mathematics. Depending how detailed we need to get.

16.387064 cubic centimeters x 19.32 grams = 316.59807648 grams

316.59807648 grams x 0.0321507466 troy ounces = 10.178864530955899968 troy ounces

316.59807648 grams x 0.0352739619 imperial ounces = 11.167668487368806112 ounces

How can you tell if something is made of gold?

First you must determine the volume of the gold object. This can be done by using a container with water that is on a scale. The weight of the container and water has to to be recorded or the scaled "zeroed out" with the water and container on it. Next you suspend the gold object with a fine thread in the water. For simplicity it is better to use grams for weight and cubic centimeters (1 cc= milliliter) for volume. The difference of weight caused by the suspended gold is equal to the weight of water with the same volume as the gold object. Since one cubic centimeter of water weighs one gram this ralationship allows for conversion from weight directly to volume. Now that you know the volume of the object you need to multiply it by the density of gold, 19.3 grams per cc. Now put the gold object on the scale and see how much it weighs. The calculated answer and the scale reading should be the same if it is made of gold.


How much does aluminium weigh per cubic millimetre?

Aluminum has a density of 2.7 g/cm^3 1 inch is 2.54 cm. So, a cube of aluminum with a volume of one cubic inch has a volume of 16.39 (rounded to hundredths place) cm^3 Multiply that by 2.7 g/cm^3 and you get 44.25 g. Since your original question was in inches, I assume you want the answer in ounces. So, the final answer is this: One cubic inch of aluminum weighs 1.56 ounces.


How much does one liter of gold weigh?

The volume of 1 litre is 1000 cubic centimetres. For a metal it is much better to use cubic centimetres. For liquids like milk or oil you use litres. The density of gold is 19.3 grams per cubic centimetre. So, 1000 cubic centimetres of lead weigh 1000 times 19.3 = 19300 grams or 19.3 kilograms.

What unit measures volume?

There are two systems of measuring volumes, in case you didn't know. They are the US and the metric. The US units are the teaspoon, tablespoon, fluid ounce, cup, pint, quart, gallon, cubic inch, cubic foot, cubic yard, acre foot, and cubic mile. The metric units are the liter and some cubic metric length units. Scientific units (SI) are in liters

None, since there can be no conversion. A cubic inch is a measure of volume in 3-dimensional space It is not a measure of weight.
