What is the answers and pls show work if

D = m / V

It even gives you the density of gold in the problem. Major hint. Once you know the volume (using V = m / D) then you can calculate the height (thickness) from the equation...

V = L x W x H

Volume = Length x Width x Height

start by converting 200.0 mg into grams

1000 mg = 1 g

200. mg x (1 g / 10^3 mg) = 0.200 g

V = m / D

V = 0.200 g / (19.32 g/cm^3)

V = 0.01035 cm^3

Convert 2.4 ft and 1 ft to cm

2.4 ft x (12 in / 1 ft) x (2.54 cm / 1 in) = 73.15 cm

1 ft = 30.48 cm

Compute the height (thickness)

V = LxWxH

H = V / LW = 0.01035 cm^3 / 73.15 cm / 30.48 cm

H = 4.64 x 10^-6 cm

Convert to nanometers

4.64 x 10^-6 cm x (1 m / 100 cm) x (10^9 nm / 1 m) = 46.4 nm

Knowing the atomic radius of gold, I might have asked my students for the minimum number of gold atoms in this thickness of gold. This would assume that the gold atoms are all in a row. This would give the minimum number of gold atoms.

Atomic radius gold = 174 pm

Diameter = 348 pm

46.4 nm x (1 m / 10^9 nm) x (10^12 pm / 1 m) x (1 Au atom / 248 pm) = 133 atoms of gold

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
