E: 77-50=27 (the volume of the gold) 521/27=19.3

The statement, that describes the density of the gold is "19.3g/mL."

What is density?

A substance's density is defined as its mass per unit volume. In other words, density is the ratio of mass to volume.

[tex]Density\;=\;\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

Now, the volume of water,

= 77.0 mL - 50.0 mL

= 27.0 mL

Density of the gold comes out to be,

[tex]=\frac{521\;g}{27.0\;mL} \\\\= 19.296\;g/mL[/tex]

≈ 19.3 g/mL

Hence the correct option is E.
