    Answer: C

    1054 g

    Explanation:

    Given that the object is in the shape of semi sphere with diameter of 8.2cm. And density of 7.3g/cm^3.

    From definition of density,

    Density = mass/volume

    Volume of a half - sphere = 2/3πr^3

    Volume = 2/3 * 3.143 * 4.1^3

    Volume = 144.35 cm^3

    Let make mass the subject of formula

    Mass = Density * volume

    Mass = 7.3 * 144.35

    Mass = 1053.74g

    The mass of the paperweight, in grams is 1054
