Answer

m = 1.45 x $10^{3}$ g

Work Step by Step

From formula for density d = $\frac{m}{V}$ , we can write the formula to find the mass: m = d x v We can find the volume of silicon by applying formula for volume of circular cylinder: $V_{circular cylinder}$ = $\pi$ $r^{2}$ h Replace the values $\pi$, r, and h : $V_{circular cylinder}$ = 3.14 x $(4 cm)^{2}$ x 12.40 cm V = 622.976 $cm^{3}$ V = 622.98 $cm^{3}$ Now we can find the mass of silicon: m = d x V m = 2.33 $\frac{g}{cm^{3}}$ x 622.98 $cm^{3}$ m = 1451.5 g m = 1.45 x $10^{3}$ g
